POcreating an infinite stack of UIImageviews in xcode

Body
copied!<p>i am trying to create a stack of UIImageViews in my app where i can indefinitely touch the uiimageview move it around the screen and drop it anywhere and there would still be a representation of the UIImageview in the original location where i could go grab another uiimageview move it and so on.the way i was trying to solve this problem was to create a uiimageview in IB that would remain in its original location and each time a touch is detected on top of it create a new uiimageview in the same location that would be able to be moved. here is the code i have so far:</p> <pre><code>-(void)dispatchTouchEvent:(UIView *)theView toPosition:(CGPoint)position { switch (glyphActive) { case 1: UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"1.png"]; onePieceCopy = [[UIImage alloc] initWithImage:image]; onePieceCopy.frame = CGRectMake(currentPos.x, currentPos.y, 75, 75); [self.view addSubview:image]; if (CGRectContainsPoint([onePiece frame], position)) { onePiece.center = position; [self bringSubviewToFront:onePiece]; } //[onePieceCopy release]; break; } } </code></pre> <p>however i am getting errors on this line:</p> <pre><code>UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"1.png"]; </code></pre> <p>that says "expected expression before 'UIImage'". and another error here:</p> <pre><code>[self.view addSubview:image]; </code></pre> <p>that says " error: request for member 'view' in something not a structure or union"</p> <p>i'm fairly new to all this and im not sure what im doing wrong can anyone give me a hand?</p>
