    We do need to add any framework for the same.

    If possible can you give me the sample project for the same

    i have developed an iphone application. i get the data for that application via xml consuming. for this i used a specific URL (hard coded). i plan to give this app to a customer .The customer will use it with his/she own URL so, for this what i can i do?

    thanks in advance

  6. hiren443 Says:

    I have developed an app in which i want to post an image.

    when i captured image as vertical it set to horizontal in UIImageview as it must be set vertical.
    how this code helpful for my app. If possible than sent me a sample project

    thanx in advance!!!
