Question

After making the rest call through RKObjectManager,it is not loading the objects when i don’t have internet connection. I test with domain.local and my WIFI is Off.

I know that i can implement with “reachabilityObserver” but i don’t know how can i make this.

My code :

#import "ViewInformationForm.h"
#import <RestKit/RestKit.h>

@interface User : NSObject {
    NSNumber*        _user_forfait;
    NSNumber*        _user_client_free;
    NSNumber*        _user_demande_portabilite;
    NSNumber*        _user_mail_confirm;
    NSNumber*        _user_mail_enregistrement_inscrption;
    NSNumber*        _user_mail_depart_expedition;
    NSNumber*        _user_mail_arrivee_expedition;
    NSNumber*        _user_activation;
    NSNumber*        _user_portabilite;
}

@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_forfait;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_client_free;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_demande_portabilite;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_mail_confirm;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_mail_enregistrement_inscrption;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_mail_depart_expedition;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_mail_arrivee_expedition;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_activation;
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSNumber*        user_portabilite;

@end

Thank you for your help.

Answer 1

This is how you register for the reachability notifications in RestKit:

// Register for changes in network availability
NSNotificationCenter* center = [NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter];
[center addObserver:self selector:@selector(reachabilityDidChange:) name:RKReachabilityDidChangeNotification object:nil];

And here you catch the notification:

- (void)reachabilityDidChange:(NSNotification *)notification {
    RKReachabilityObserver* observer = (RKReachabilityObserver *) [notification object];
    RKReachabilityNetworkStatus status = [observer networkStatus];
    if (RKReachabilityNotReachable == status) {
        RKLogInfo(@"No network access!");
    } else if (RKReachabilityReachableViaWiFi == status) {
        RKLogInfo(@"Online via WiFi!");
    } else if (RKReachabilityReachableViaWWAN == status) {
        RKLogInfo(@"Online via Edge or 3G!");
    }
}
