Question

I am developing a web-based application where I need to launch the application only when my server is up for a particular host. If the network connection is not available I am planning to show an alertview to re-launch the application. I am using this:

    NSURL *scriptUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://lmsstaging.2xprime.com"];
    NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:scriptUrl];

    if (data != nil) {
//Launch my application
}
else {
//show an alert
}

But the problem is that, when I click on the “OK” button in the alert view, I want my application to quit. Is this the right way to do this? Can someone suggest any other option to overcome this scenario?

Answer 1

There is no “official” way to quit. Apple recommends your alert to say something like: “Network connectivity required for this application. Press the home button to quit.”
