AFNetworking Reachability? #56

Closed conradwt closed 10 years ago

conradwt commented 10 years ago

Will there be a section in the book which focuses on AFNetworking Reachability and its best practices for usage within an iOS application? For example, when a user launches an application for the first time which requires network connectivity, one can use iOS 7 Control Center to enable it. In the past, I have registered to receive these type of network change events to automatically retrieve data and update the UI for a particular scene. The other case is when the user looses there network connectivity. For example, going into an elevator or any structure which prevents one from getting the network. Finally, the last case is when one performs an action which requires network connectivity and they are not connected.

@dazmuda any input on this one?

I was leaving this open as it would be nice to cover, but not something that I'm implementing right now.

I'm going to close it now and place it on the list of desirable additions that I'm using for the iOS section of the book.

If I add it while going back through the AFNetworking section, I'll comment on this issue.
