Update: NSURLConnection now seems to properly support 100-Continue. In any case, this answer contains a link to the script to build libcurl for iOS/OSX. I'm having a bit of a hard time with NSURLConnection , given that it doesn't support Section 8.2.3 of RFC 2616 (HTTP/1.1). Basically the client needs to be able to support sending the header Expect: 100-Continue ; after sending the request headers, it must wait for a response from the server with the status code 100 before sending the POST / PUT body. Furthermore, NSURLConnection (and consequently all libs that build on top of it) won't return

I am trying to do something like this: NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://google.com"]]; request.HTTPMethod = @"POST"; NSString *stringData = @"some data"; NSData *requestBodyData = [stringData dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]; request.HTTPBody = requestBodyData; NSURLConnection *conn = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self]; This is what I have so far: var url = NSURL(string: "some url") var request = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url) request.HTTPMethod = "POST" var dataString = "some data" var

With an update to the client's API the HTTPBasicAuthication method has been replace with a OAuth2 Bearer Authorization header. With the old API I would do the following: NSURLCredential *credential = [NSURLCredential credentialWithUser:self.account.username password:self.account.token persistence:NSURLCredentialPersistenceForSession]; NSURLProtectionSpace *space = [[NSURLProtectionSpace alloc] initWithHost:kAPIHost port:443 protocol:NSURLProtectionSpaceHTTPS realm:@"my-api" authenticationMethod:NSURLAuthenticationMethodHTTPBasic]; But this will not work with the Bearer header. Now normally I

How can I read the data from the header sent by in the server response. I am using NSURLConnection to send the request. If the URL is an HTTP URL, then the NSURLResponse that you receive in your connection's delegate's -connection:didReceiveResponse: method (or via another method) will be an NSHTTPURLResponse , which has an -allHeaderFields method that lets you access the headers. NSURLResponse* response = // the response, from somewhere NSDictionary* headers = [(NSHTTPURLResponse *)response allHeaderFields]; // now query `headers` for the header you want In my case NSHTTPURLResponse *response

My app needs to track the users location in the background but it is failing to send a 'get' request. The http request gets sent immediately when the app comes to the foreground. I am using RestKit for all my network requests and I followed this tutorial to setup my background locations service. In my applicationDidEnterBackground -(void)applicationDidEnterBackground:(UIApplication *)application { self.bgLocationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init]; self.bgLocationManager.delegate = self; [self.bgLocationManager startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges]; NSLog(@"Entered Background"); }

I want to ask a question about the objective C. I want to download a .vcf file from a server (CardDav server) in iPhone application. After I read the API and library of the Apple Developer, I found that I should use the NSURLConnection Class . However, I don't know how to start the program. Therefore, I want to ask can anyone give me some tutorial or website reference (I mean the example) for me? Thank you very much. You can use this method: - (id)initWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request delegate:(id)delegate startImmediately:(BOOL)startImmediately More here and the delegate: - (void)connection

I am very new to iOS. I am trying to send data through post method to PHP. In PHP it can't take data like $_POST['data'] , but it takes $_GET['data'] . My iOS code is as follows. NSString *strURL = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://example.com/app_respond_to_job?emp_id=%@&job_code=%@&status=Worker-Accepted&comment=%@",SaveID2,txtJobcode1,alertTextField.text]; NSURL *apiURL = [NSURL URLWithString:strURL]; NSMutableURLRequest *urlRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:apiURL]; [urlRequest setHTTPMethod:@"POST"]; NSURLConnection *connection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest
