Question

I have a PhoneGap app up and running using JavaScript and HTML.

On app startup I need to run some Objective C code (I don’t know anything about Objective C. I just have some code that I need to copy + paste so it runs when the app starts).

Where do I put that code in my Phonegap project? Is there some kind of event listener or a main function?

Answer 1

In your AppDelegate.m file look for a method called:

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    //ADD YOUR OBJECTIVE-C CODE HERE
    return YES;
}

Another possible option:

It’s possible that you have other classes, like an XXXViewController.h/.m. If that’s the case, check if there is a method called:

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    //INSERT YOUR OBJECTIVE-C CODE HERE.
}
