Question

I’ve create an application for iPad using PhoneGap, and I would like to create a configuration menu for the application. For iOS application is possible to let the iOS creates that interface (it will be located in the settings under the Apps section) just like what Skype, Talking Tom applications uses.

So I would like to make the same thing, taking in consideration I’m developping using phonegap and not Objective-C, but I can also do some objective-c to let it work if needed.

Thank you very much for your time reading and/or answering 🙂

Best Regards.

You can use the NSUserDefaults class to access the values that the user sets using your Settings bundle:

NSUserDefaults *defaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
NSInteger stars = [defaults integerForKey:@"numberOfStars"];
double velocity = [defaults doubleForKey:@"shipVelocity"];

and so forth. I’m not aware of a plugin for PhoneGap that makes user preferences available to your JavaScript, but once you know how to access the settings in Objective-C you should be able to provide that data to your scripts.
