iPhone网络开发中如何使用NSURLConnection是本文要介绍的内容,这篇文章是翻译的苹果官方文档,想要看英文原版的可以到苹果网站查看,来看详细内容。
NSURLConnection 提供了很多灵活的方法下载URL内容也提供了一个简单的接口去创建和放弃连接,同时使用很多的delegate方法去支持连接过程的反馈和控制
如何创建一个连接呢?
为了下载url的内容,程序需要提供一个delegate对象,并且至少实现下面的方法
- - (void)connection:(NSURLConnection*)connection didReceiveResponse:(NSHTTPURLResponse*)response
- - (void)connection:(NSURLConnection*)connection didReceiveData:(NSData*)data
- - (void)connection:(NSURLConnection*)connection didFailWithError:(NSError*)error
- - (void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection
NSURLConnect还提供了一个方便的类方法(class method) : sendSynchronousRequest:returningResponse:error: 可用来 同步地加载一个URL请求
- + (NSData *)sendSynchronousRequest: (NSURLRequest *)request returningResponse: (NSURLResponse **)response error: (NSError **)error
1. request 要装载的URL请求. 这个request 对象 作为初始化进程的一部分,被深度复制(deep-copied). 在这个方法返回之后, 再修改request, 将不会影响用在装载的过程中的request
2. reponse 输出参数, 由服务器返回的URL响应
3. error 输出参数, 如果在处理请求的过程中发生错误,就会使用. 无错误,就为NULL
举例一
1、先创建一个NSURL
2、在通过NSURL创建NSURLRequest,可以指定缓存规则和超时时间
3、创建NSURLConnection实例,指定NSURLRequest和一个delegate对象
如果创建失败,则会返回nil,如果创建成功则创建一个NSMutalbeData的实例用来存储数据
代码:
- NSURLRequest *theRequest=[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:
- [NSURL URLWithString:@“http:
- cachePolicy:NSURLRequestUseProtocolCachePolicy
- timeoutInterval:60.0];
- NSURLConnection *theConncetion=[[NSURLConnection alloc]
- initWithRequest:theRequest delegate:self];
- if(theConnection)
- {
-
- receivedData=[[NSMutableData data] retain];
- }else
- NSURLRequestUseProtocolCachePolicy
- NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringCacheData
- NSURLRequestReturnCacheDataElseLoad
- NSURLRequestReturnCacheDataDontLoad
NSURLConnection还有几个初始化函数,有个初始化函数可以做到创建连接但是并不马上开始下载,而是通过start:开始
当收到initWithRequest: delegate: 消息时,下载会立即开始,在代理(delegate)收到connectionDidFinishLoading:或者 connection:didFailWithError:消息之前可以通过给连接发送一个cancel:消息来中断下载。
当服务器提供了足够客户程序创建NSURLResponse对象的信息时,代理对象会收到一个connection:didReceiveResponse:消息,在消息内可以检查NSURLResponse对象和确定数据的预期长途,mime类型,文件名以及其他服务器提供的元信息
要注意,一个简单的连接也可能会收到多个connection:didReceiveResponse:消息当服务器连接重置或者一些罕见的原因(比如多组mime文档),代理都会收到该消息这时候应该重置进度指示,丢弃之前接收的数据
- -(void)connection:(NSURLConnection *) connectiondidReceiveResponse:
- (NSURLResponse*)response
- {
- [receiveData setLength:0];
- }
当下载开始的时候,每当有数据接收,代理会定期收到connection:didReceiveData:消息代理应当在实现中储存新接收的数据,下面的例子既是如此
- -(void) connection:(NSURLConnection *) connection didReceiveData:
- (NSData *) data
- {
- [receiveData appendData:data];
-
- }
在上面的方法实现中,可以加入一个进度指示器,提示用户下载进度
当下载的过程中有错误发生的时候,代理会收到一个connection:didFailWithError消息,消息参数里面的NSError对象提供了具体的错误细节,它也能提供在用户信息字典里面失败的url请求(使用NSErrorFailingURLStringKey)
当代理接收到连接的connection:didFailWithError消息后,对于该连接不会在收到任何消息
举例
- -(void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didFailWithError:(NSError *)error
- {
- [connection release];
-
- [receivedData release];
- NSLog(@"Connection failed! Error - %@ %@",
- [error localizedDescription],
- [[error userInfo] objectForKey:NSErrorFailingURLStringErrorKey]);
- }
最后,如果连接请求成功的下载,代理会接收connectionDidFinishLoading:消息代理不会收到其他的消息了,在消息的实现中,应该释放掉连接
举例:
- -(void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection
- {
-
- NSLog(@"succeeded %d byte received",[receivedData length]);
-
- [connection release];
- [receivedData release];
- }
一个实现异步get请求的例子:
- NSString *url = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://localhost/chat/messages.php?past=%ld&t=%ld",
- lastId, time(0) ];
-
- NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init] autorelease];
- [request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:url]];
- [request setHTTPMethod:@"GET"];
-
- NSURLConnection *conn=[[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self];
- if (conn)
- {
- receivedData = [[NSMutableData data] retain];
- }
- else
- {
- }
-
- - (void)timerCallback {
-
- [self getNewMessages];
- }
-
- - (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)response
- {
- [receivedData setLength:0];
- }
-
- - (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveData:(NSData *)data
- {
- [receivedData appendData:data];
- }
-
- - (void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection
- {
- if (chatParser)
- [chatParser release];
-
- if ( messages == nil )
- messages = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
-
- chatParser = [[NSXMLParser alloc] initWithData:receivedData];
- [chatParser setDelegate:self];
- [chatParser parse];
-
- [receivedData release];
-
- [messageList reloadData];
-
- NSInvocation *invocation = [NSInvocation invocationWithMethodSignature:
- [self methodSignatureForSelector: @selector(timerCallback)]];
- [invocation setTarget:self];
- [invocation setSelector:@selector(timerCallback)];
-
- [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:5.0 invocation:invocation repeats:NO];
- }
一个实现同步Get请求的例子:
-
- NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init];
-
- [request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlStr]];
-
- [request setHTTPMethod:@"GET"];
-
- NSData *returnData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request
- returningResponse:nil error:nil];
-
- [request release];
