#08 SMP3 OData SDK for iOS - Offline APIs

[kenichi_unnai]

Hi everyone, time to code.

In order to refresh the offline store...

This single line of code does the job.

01  [offlineStore scheduleRefreshWithDelegate:self];

Just like the other delegates so far, we need a new delegate named SODataOfflineStoreRefreshDelegate. In this example it is declared in the same class, so simply set self. This delegate has two mandatory callback methods:

• offlineStoreRefreshSucceeded: Called when a refresh has finished successfully.
• offlineStoreRefreshFailed: Called when a refresh has failed.

And two optional callback methods:

• offlineStoreRefreshStarted: Called when a refresh has started.
• offlineStoreRefreshFinished: Called when a refresh has finished.

That's all for the refresh. How about the flush?

01  [offlineStore scheduleFlushQueuedRequestsWithDelegate:self];

Yes we have a delegate for this too. It is SODataOfflineStoreFlushDelegate (yes, your wild guess is correct 🙂 ). It has two mandatory callback methods:

• offlineStoreFlushSucceeded: Called when a flush has finished successfully.
• offlineStoreFlushFailed: Called when a flush has failed.

And two optional callback methods:

• offlineStoreFlushStarted: Called when a flush has started.
• offlineStoreFlushFinished: Called when a flush has finished.

...Hope you're pleasantly surprised with its simplicity.

However...

Yes, I hear you. The question is "What if the OData Producer fails one of the queued requests during a flush?"

We'll discuss about it in the next one, stay tuned.

See you in the next blog,
