POGet http response code in ios when using sendSynchronousRequest
text
Body
copied!<p>I have a working http GET without using any third party bits, I am new to iOS so this was a struggle to setup initially. My code looks like:</p> <pre><code>-(NSString *) SendGetRequestToRest:(NSString *)urlEndString { NSString *userName = @"userN"; NSString *password = @"PassW"; NSString *urlBaseString = @"http://someurl.co.uk/"; NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@", urlBaseString, urlEndString]; NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init]; [request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]]; [request setHTTPMethod:@"GET"]; NSString *str1 = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@:%@", userName, password]; NSString *encodedString = [self stringByBase64EncodingWithString:str1]; [request addValue:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Basic %@",encodedString] forHTTPHeaderField:@"Authorization"]; NSData *returnData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:nil error:nil]; NSString *str = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:returnData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]; NSLog(@"str: %@", str); return str; } </code></pre> <p>What I need to do is track when the status code of the http GET is not a nice 200, I saw <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12238377">How to check status of web server in iOS?</a> and this looks promising i.e. add this:</p> <pre><code>-(void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveResponse:(NSHTTPURLResponse *)response { if ([response statusCode] == 404) { /// do some stuff } } </code></pre> <p>But I cant see how to connect this up to</p> <pre><code>NSData *returnData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:nil error:nil]; </code></pre> <p>as it doesnt accept a delegate?</p>
