AFNetworking 2.0 queue request when device is offline with setReachabilityStatusChangeBlock does nothing

Question

I\'ve been trying to come up with a solution to queue HTTP requests using AFNetworking when the device is offline, so when it goes back online the requests gets done. As far

Answer 1

You do not store manager. So it is like any local variable is deleted when leaving viewDidLoad. Store it to property or instance variable.

Answer 2

You need to call startMonitoring, before you call setReachabilityStatusChangeBlock

[manager.reachabilityManager startMonitoring];

If you are using AFNetworking 2.0, I suggest following:

[[AFNetworkReachabilityManager sharedManager] startMonitoring];
[[AFNetworkReachabilityManager sharedManager] setReachabilityStatusChangeBlock:^(AFNetworkReachabilityStatus status) {
    DLog(@"Reachability: %@", AFStringFromNetworkReachabilityStatus(status));
    switch (status) {
        case AFNetworkReachabilityStatusReachableViaWWAN:
        case AFNetworkReachabilityStatusReachableViaWiFi:
            [operationQueue setSuspended:NO];
            NSLog(@"WIFI");
            break;
        case AFNetworkReachabilityStatusNotReachable:
        default:
            [operationQueue setSuspended:YES];
            NSLog(@"offline, baby");
            break;
    }
}];
