Hi Alex, You could just reference the MonoTouch.SQLite sub-project in your own project, you don't need to copy the source code anywhere (although you *could* also do it that way if you want).
This is what I do in my FlightLog app (also on github if you are interested - take a look at the AircraftViewController and the FlightLogViewController to see how they use it). As far as your last question, that really depends on whether or not my SQLiteTableViewController meets your needs. If it doesn't, you could at least use it to help you figure out how to use UISearchDisplayController by messing around with the sample app. Hope that helps, Jeff On Tue, Jun 5, 2012 at 12:40 PM, Alex White <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Jeff, > > Thanks very much for the link, I had a quick look at your project the > other day but it was just a fleeting glance, nice work in there, what do > you recommend, I am using SQLite databases already pre-populated with data, > so my quick look suggests that I should copy al of the contents of the > MonoTouch.SQLite / MonoTouch.SQLite folder then, take the > sampletableviewcontroller.cs and use that as a template for each table that > I want to expose, or should I just try and figure out how you have done > stuff and make changes to my program, it is early days for this project so > big changes can happen without too many issues. > > Thanks again > > Alex > > > On 5 Jun 2012, at 16:31, Jeff Stedfast wrote: > > Hi Alex, > > When you create a UISearchDisplayController, you can pass it a UISearchBar. > > I will say that using a UISearchDisplayController can be very confusing > the first time you use it, so I might suggest taking a look at > https://github.com/jstedfast/MonoTouch.SQLite > > You'll see how I setup a UISearchDisplayController in the > AllInOneUITableViewController (mostly what this class does is to simplify > the use of UITableViewControllers so that you don't have to create all the > different delegate classes, etc). > > Jeff > > On Tue, Jun 5, 2012 at 10:51 AM, Alex White <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Hi Nic, >> >> thanks for the reply, >> >> I have tried the following code in the ViewDidAppear and ViewDidLoad and >> both give me a null issue, >> >> searchBar = new UISearchBar (f){ >> Delegate = new SearchDelegate (), >> ShowsCancelButton = true, >> } ; >> string[] buttons = new string[] { "POI", "Road", "Postcode"} ; >> searchBar = new UISearchDisplayController(); >> searchBar.ScopeButtonTitles = buttons; >> searchBar.ShowsScopeBar = true; >> searchBar.SizeToFit(); >> this.SearchDisplayController.SearchBar = searchBar; <-- this errors >> saying readonly >> >> >> I have also tried the following in the events above >> >> string[] buttons = new string[] { "POI", "Road", "Postcode"} ; >> UISearchDisplayController POIsearch = new UISearchDisplayController(); >> POIsearch.SearchBar.ShowsScopeBar = true; <<--- fails here >> POIsearch.SearchBar.ScopeButtonTitles = buttons; >> >> I just need to see a working example to be able to see where I am going >> wrong, TBH I have tried so many things now that I am about to drop that >> part of the project until I can find an answer I spent the whole of >> yesterday googling for an answer and nothing worked. >> >> Thanks >> >> Alex >> >> On 5 Jun 2012, at 13:57, Nic Wise wrote: >> >> You may need to show the dialog before it creates the search bar - >> this happens with NavigationBars too. >> >> On Tue, Jun 5, 2012 at 12:40 PM, Alex White <[email protected]> >> wrote: >> >> Hi, >> >> >> I am new to MT and MT.D, I am trying to get my head round how to properly >> >> structure the search bar with search scope, I have not found any working >> >> examples of SQLite IList into a the tableview.source of an inherited >> >> dialogviewcontroller, and then to get the searching to work, I have got >> the >> >> first load of the data working ok I am not getting anywhere with >> subsequent >> >> of that data. >> >> >> In my constructor of my inherited class I have the following >> >> >> base.AutoHideSearch = true; >> >> base.Autorotate = true; >> >> base.EnableSearch = true; >> >> >> >> Am I right in thinking that the ILIST<> is persisted at the class level >> and >> >> that the searches don't go back out to the database to build the searches >> >> but work off the loaded data? >> >> >> I am also needing to get the search scope buttons into the search bar, >> but I >> >> am hitting null errors with the following code >> >> >> string[] buttons = new string[] { "POI", "Road", "Postcode"} ; >> >> UISearchDisplayController POIsearch = new UISearchDisplayController(); >> >> POIsearch.SearchBar.ShowsScopeBar = true; <<--- fails here >> >> POIsearch.SearchBar.ScopeButtonTitles = buttons; >> >> >> I am sure that all of the issues are my lack of understanding and not bugs >> >> so any example code just to get me going would be great. >> >> >> Thanks in advance >> >> >> Alex >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> >> MonoTouch mailing list >> >> [email protected] >> >> http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monotouch >> >> >> >> >> >> -- >> Nic Wise >> t. +44 7788 592 806 | @fastchicken | http://www.linkedin.com/in/nicwise >> b. http://www.fastchicken.co.nz/ >> >> Earnest: Self-employed?
