state

I'm trying to implement state restoration in an app that uses iOS 6+ and storyboards, but I am having problems finding a way to prevent duplicate calls to heavy methods. If I simply start the app, then I need to setup the UI in viewDidLoad : - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; [self setupUI]; } This works fine in a normal, non-state-restoration world. Now I've added state restoration and after restoring some properties I need to update the UI with those properties: - (void)decodeRestorableStateWithCoder:(NSCoder *)coder { [super decodeRestorableStateWithCoder:coder]; // restore

So, I was reading the Google testing blog, and it says that global state is bad and makes it hard to write tests. I believe it--my code is difficult to test right now. So how do I avoid global state? The biggest things I use global state (as I understand it) for is managing key pieces of information between our development, acceptance, and production environments. For example, I have a static class named "Globals" with a static member called "DBConnectionString." When the application loads, it determines which connection string to load, and populates Globals.DBConnectionString. I load file

I am quite new to React and after going through some tutorials, I was trying below code of mine. I made one component, passed props to it from a store, on componentWillMount I make a new state for component. Rendering is fine till now. Next I bound my state to value of an input box and I have onChange listener as well. Still, I can't change my values in the field. Since, I am from Angular background, I am assuming binding input's value to state like below will automatically update the property name in state object. Am I wrong here ?? componentWillMount(){ this.setState({ updatable : false,

tl;dr; I need to communicate state which several services need and originates in data bound to the scope of a controller. What would a good and 'Angular zen' way to do so? Back story I'm developing a single page application and after much thought have decided to use AngularJS. The pages are laid out in a way similar to: The actual layout doesn't matter much, the concept remains the same for similar layouts. I need to communicate information that is bound to the scope of SettingsController to the services the controllers in the ngView require. I also need to update the content obtained from the

I have an app that starts playing sounds and begins/resumes gameplay in the onResume() method, but what I'm noticing is that if my app was the last run application when I put the phone into standby (screen off), and I just press the Menu button to check the time, then the phone starts playing the game and sounds in the background (the app isn't actually visible, only the screen with the date/time is, yet onResume must have been called in my app). What am I to do here? Is there a way to discern what is reactivating the app, and then add a conditional statement that only starts the game when the

I want to make a form that once submitted, on each next rendering of the form for the same user, the form will be already filled out with the data from the last time the user submitted it. sounds like something that django should have shortcut for - does it have it? if not what would be the easiest way to do it? The best I could come up with is pickeling cleaned_data and saving it as a cookie, recreating the form from it later. This already sounds like a good plan. But if there is no pressure on using cookies, I would resort to using the session instead. That way you won't hit a size limit on
