If/else not updating view when UISwitch on or off

Hi All,

I have set up the settings.bundle and an Options View in my app that mirrors the settings. All of this works and there doesn't seem to be any problem with it. Options opens as a modal view, the user then changes a switch and clicks the done button that closes the Options view and returns to the main view, which has a Scrollview on it. Based on the switch setting, I want to display one of two images, but it only shows the negative result image.

Two questions:
1. The if/else is in the main view ViewDidLoad. Is this the right place to update the scrollview?
2. Should it be dealt with when the user clicks the Done button, and how?

I have checked the value returned from the NSUserdefaults, but the result doesn't seem to be recognised or acted upon.

Code:

NSUserDefaults *defaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
	NSString *Zones = [defaults objectForKey:@"zones"];
	
	UIImageView *tempImageView;
	if (Zones == @"Enabled") {
		tempImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"zones.jpg"]];
	} else {
		tempImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"nozones.jpg"]];
	}
	self.imageView = tempImageView;

I get no errors anywhere in the app.

 

Good point. This is one of many attempts to evaluate the switch setting and looks like I had stopped thinking properly about it. It's been a long day!!

 

BOOL was pretty much the same result. That's why I think it might be in the wrong place. It never errors or has any problems, but any change in the setting of the UISwitch makes no difference to which image is shown.

 

OK, I have pretty much proved that the evaluation I now have is working when running in the simulator, but does not update the scrollview when changing the UISwitch in Options.

If I set it to Enabled, and then build the app into the Simulator, it shows the zone image. If I then disable the UISwitch in Options, quit the simulator and then build again, it shows the disabled image. All of this is happening in the ViewDidLoad in the MainViewController.

Options and setting.bundle all work and update each other.

So I think it needs to be updated when the user clicks the Done button to leave Options, so what would be the best way of doing that?
