I have trouble with dataTaskWithRequest, I am trying to populate a variable when I call a method that is using dataTaskWithRequest. but it appears not populate because when I call this variable later, Its nil
Here is the method:
-(void)deviceCheck:(NSString *)device Completetion:(void (^) (NSArray * result,NSError * error))completion{
NSString *deviceRequestString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@?device=%@",webservice,device];
NSURL *JSONURL = [NSURL URLWithString:deviceRequestString];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:JSONURL];
NSURLSessionDataTask * dataTask = [[NSURLSession sharedSession] dataTaskWithRequest:request
completionHandler:^(NSData * _Nullable data, NSURLResponse * _Nullable response, NSError * _Nullable error) {
if(data == nil){
completion(nil,error);
return;
}
NSError *myError;
NSArray *tableArray = [[NSArray alloc]initWithArray:[NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions error:&myError]];
completion(tableArray,myError);
}];
[dataTask resume];
}
and this is how I am calling it:
[self deviceCheck:@"testunitid" Completetion:^(NSArray *result, NSError *error) {
if([result count] == 0){
UIAlertController *alertController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"Message" message:@"Device is not valid." preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];
UIAlertAction* ok = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"OK" style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault handler:nil];
[alertController addAction:ok];
[self presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];
}else{
scanner=[DTDevices sharedDevice];
[scanner addDelegate:self];
[scanner connect];
Name = [[result objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:@"name"];
Name = [Name stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceCharacterSet]];
Name = [Name stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters:[NSCharacterSet URLQueryAllowedCharacterSet]];
}
}];
I am trying to populate the variable Name When I put break points everywhere I can see its being populated, same with results, but when I try to call it here:
[self getLocationInfo:Name Completetion:^(NSArray *result, NSError *error) {
if([result count] == 0){
UIAlertController *alertController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"Message" message:@"There is an issue with the location tag." preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];
UIAlertAction* ok = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"OK" style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault handler:nil];
[alertController addAction:ok];
[self presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];
ScannerMessage.text = @"READY TO SCAN";
ScannerMessage.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
}else{
[self performSegueWithIdentifier: @"SegueIdentifier" sender: self];
}
}];
Its nil
Is there a better way to use dataTaskWithRequest ? I find this way a bit slow when I have multiple calls. Or is there away to use the variable Name later? I am very confused. I really miss sendSynchronousRequest I found that faster and better.
To avoid nil make sure you initialize the variable in both if else blocks:
if([result count] == 0){
Name = @"[result count] == 0";
}else{
//populate names
}
If [result count] == 0
then you have to do the debugging in that direction.
