IOS unknown typename appdelegate - ios

I am receiving error like
: Unknown type name 'AppDelegate'
: Unknown type name 'AppDelegate'
: Property with 'weak' attribute must be of object type
I had refer many Question like this but all give answer like add
#class Appdelegate;
I tried with editing this code but after this it gives error like
: AppDelegate.m:23:18: Redefinition of 'ddLogLevel'
Because this log is define in both view controller. i have also tried to commented line of this log from above view controller but then it will give error
: /ChatViewController.m:440:13: Use of undeclared identifier 'ddLogLevel'
Now what is the solution for this?
EDIT: i have to declare like this. because i am working on xmpp. so i have to call [[self appDelegate] connect] method in another view controller.
- (AppDelegate *)appDelegate
{
return (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
}

You have two issues there, I will address them separately:
Unknown type name 'AppDelegate'
This occurs because of circular dependency: ChathistryViewController.h imports AppDelegate.h and vice-versa.
You can resolve this by importing AppDelegate.h only in ChathistryViewController.m and including #class AppDelegate in .h file.
AppDelegate.m:23:18: Redefinition of 'ddLogLevel'
When you are defining ddLogLevel in your *ViewController.h file, it's definition is "copied" to all files you import *ViewController.h.
You should import CocoaLumberjack and define ddLogLevel only in .m files, as they are not needed in .h anyway.

Appdelegate object should be created like this:
It is a singletone Class, where only one instance of the class exists for the current process.
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];

How can I declare interface in AppDelegate.h in Xcode?

I'm using React Native to make an iOS Application.
I need to add some code to AppDelegate.h file.
However, after searching about this, I realized that it's impossible to declare two interfaces at the same time.
How can I integrate these two interfaces?
// here's the code in AppDelegate.h
#interface AppDelegate : UMAppDelegateWrapper <RCTBridgeDelegate>
#property (nonatomic, strong) UMModuleRegistryAdapter *moduleRegistryAdapter;
#property (nonatomic, strong) UIWindow *window;
#end
#interface AppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate, AppsFlyerTrackerDelegate>
#end
Suposing that UMAppDelegateWrapper is a subclass of UIResponder, you can merge both as follows:
#interface AppDelegate : UMAppDelegateWrapper <UIApplicationDelegate, AppsFlyerTrackerDelegate,RCTBridgeDelegate>
#property (nonatomic, strong) UMModuleRegistryAdapter *moduleRegistryAdapter;
#property (nonatomic, strong) UIWindow *window;
#end

Best practices for JSONModel and polymorphism

How do you deal with subclassing collection attributes in JSONModel?
Let's say I have these two endpoints with different responses of the same "product object".
domain.com/api/1.0/getProductList
domain.com/api/1.0/getProductDetails/productId
I wrote some example code below to show you my issue:
// ProductListModel
#interface ProductListModel : JSONModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *productId;
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *userId;
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSArray<OrderListModel> *orders;
#end
// ProductDetailModel
#interface ProductDetailModel : ProductListModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSURL *productImageUrl;
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSArray<OrderDetailModel> *orders;
#end
// OrderListModel
#protocol OrderListModel <NSObject>
#end
#interface OrderListModel : JSONModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *orderId;
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *price;
#end
// OrderDetailModel
#protocol OrderDetailModel <NSObject>
#end
#interface OrderDetailModel : OrderListModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSURL *orderImageUrl;
#end
The ProductDetailModel wants the same inherited attributes as ProductListModel, but it wants the orders array in the subclassed type.
However this leads to a compiler warning:
Property type 'NSArray<OrderDetailModel> *' is incompatible with type
'NSArray<OrderListModel> *' inherited from 'ProductListModel'
I found this related SO post but I'd rather not monkey patch the JSONModel library.
Edit #1:
This has been discussed in the #574, and #229 github issues before but requires a "type" string to determine what class to instantiate. This requires a change on the backend API.
Is there a way to do this without changing the backend API?
You can't override the property in the subclass to have a different type as it will violate the Liskov substitution principle - #Paulw11
For future readers, here's how the updated example code would look like:
// ProductBaseModel
#interface ProductBaseModel : JSONModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *productId;
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *userId;
#end
// ProductListModel
#interface ProductListModel : ProductBaseModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSArray<OrderListModel> *orders;
#end
// ProductDetailModel
#interface ProductDetailModel : ProductBaseModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSURL *productImageUrl;
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSArray<OrderDetailModel> *orders;
#end
// OrderListModel
#protocol OrderListModel <NSObject>
#end
#interface OrderListModel : JSONModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *orderId;
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *price;
#end
// OrderDetailModel
#protocol OrderDetailModel <NSObject>
#end
#interface OrderDetailModel : OrderListModel
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSURL *orderImageUrl;
#end

Weird unknown type name issue

So I have this -
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "RateView.h"
#interface BasicCardViewController : UIViewController<RateViewDelegate>
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *label;
#property(copy, nonatomic)NSString *message;
#property(atomic)NSInteger rating;
#property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet RateView *rateView;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *ratingLabel;
#end
and this - in my RateView.h file.
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "AppDelegate.h"
#class RateView;
#protocol RateViewDelegate
-(void)rateView:(RateView *)rateView ratingDidChange:(float)rating;
#end
#interface RateView : UIView
#property(strong,nonatomic)UIImage* fullSelectedStar;
#property(strong,nonatomic)UIImage* notSelectedStar;
#property(strong, nonatomic)UIImage* halfSelectedStar;
#property (assign, nonatomic)float rating;
#property(assign) BOOL editable;
#property (strong) NSMutableArray* imageViews;
#property(assign,nonatomic) int maxRating;
#property(assign) int midMargin;
#property(assign)int leftMargin;
#property (assign) CGSize minImageSize;
#property (assign) id <RateViewDelegate> delegate;
#end
But I get two errors -
1.Cannot find protocol declaration for 'TooviaRateViewDelegate'
2.Unknown type name "RateView"
I've tried to clean, and I've verified that the files are where they should be (their filepaths are to the project).
Why is this happening?
Edit - my AppDelegate.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "SearchViewController.h"
#interface TooviaAppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate>
#property (strong, nonatomic) UIWindow *window;
#property NSOperationQueue *queue;
#property (strong, nonatomic) NSDictionary *userProfile;
#property (strong, nonatomic) SearchViewController *searchViewController;
- (NSOperationQueue*) getOperationQueue;
- (id)getSettings:(NSString *)keyPath;
- (void) saveCookies;
#end
There are also issues in my SearchViewController
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "BasicCardViewController.h"
#interface SearchViewController : UIViewController
<UISearchBarDelegate, UISearchDisplayDelegate, UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate>
- (IBAction)searchButtonClicked:(UIButton *)sender;
- (IBAction)backgroundTap:(id)sender;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITableView *resultTable;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *searchBar;
#property (strong, nonatomic) NSArray *resultsTuples;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIButton *searchButton;
#property (copy, nonatomic) NSArray *controllers;
#property(strong,nonatomic)BasicCardViewController *detailController;
Delegate and data source properties are usually marked as weak for the object graph management reasons described earlier, in “Avoid Strong Reference Cycles.”

Why iOS's auto-generated AppDelegate still declares its members as strong while I have chosen not to use ARC?

#interface AppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate>
#property (strong, nonatomic) UIWindow *window;
#property (readonly, strong, nonatomic) NSManagedObjectContext *managedObjectContext;
#property (readonly, strong, nonatomic) NSManagedObjectModel *managedObjectModel;
#property (readonly, strong, nonatomic) NSPersistentStoreCoordinator *persistentStoreCoordinator;
- (void)saveContext;
- (NSURL *)applicationDocumentsDirectory;
#end
Why iOS's auto-generated AppDelegate still declares its members as strong while I have chosen not to use ARC?
strong properties do not require ARC. strong is a synonym of retain.
From Transitioning to ARC Release Notes
// The following declaration is a synonym for: #property(retain) MyClass *myObject;
#property(strong) MyClass *myObject;

Website Attached to App

How do I attach a website to an app in Xcode using the UIWebView? The only chunk of code in the assistant editor is:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#interface XYZAppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate>
#property (strong, nonatomic) UIWindow *window;
#property (readonly, strong, nonatomic) NSManagedObjectContext *managedObjectContext;
#property (readonly, strong, nonatomic) NSManagedObjectModel *managedObjectModel;
#property (readonly, strong, nonatomic) NSPersistentStoreCoordinator
*persistentStoreCoordinator;
- (void)saveContext;
- (NSURL *)applicationDocumentsDirectory;
#end
What would be the next step?
