Updated diagrams and steps for using Xcode 4.Replacement of deprecated methods with newer methods.A new introduction to blocks with examples.Incorporation of feedback and suggestions from members of the author's forum for readers, including more detailed descriptions for some of the examples.Improved organization for some chapters.The third edition of Programming in Objective-C includes numerous updates and improvements throughout the book:
While the Objective-C language itself has gone through relatively minor changes since the introduction of Objective-C 2.0, the Apple development tools that programmers use for Objective-C development on the Mac and on iOS have changed significantly in a very short period of time. This unique approach to learning, combined with many small program examples and exercises at the end of each chapter, makes Programming in Objective-C ideally suited for either classroom use or self-study. Readers can also learn the concepts of object-oriented programming without having to first learn all of the intricacies of the underlying procedural language (C). Because of this, both beginners and experienced programmers alike can use this book to quickly and effectively learn the fundamentals of Objective-C. The book makes no assumptions about prior experience with object-oriented programming languages or with the C language (which Objective-C is based upon).
Programming in Objective-C is a concise, carefully written tutorial on the basics of Objective-C and object-oriented programming for the iOS and Mac platforms.
