Loading images for animation in UIImageView - iOS

Question

I have around 300 images to be loaded for animation the images are named loading001.png, loading002.png, loading003.png, loading004.png………loading300.png

Answer 1

There is an easier way to do this. You can simply use:

[UIImage animatedImageNamed:@"loading" duration:1.0f]

Where 1.0f is the duration to animate all the images. For this to work though, your images must be named like this:

loading1.png
loading2.png
.
.
loading99.png
.
.
loading300.png

That is, without padding with 0.

The function animatedImageNamed is available from iOS 5.0 onwards.
