Clang Checker

By:
I've recently come across a really nice alias for running the Clang Checker from the command line and I thought I should share it with everyone:

alias scan-build='xcodebuild clean && /usr/local/bin/checker-0.142/scan-build -analyze-headers -v -v -v -V xcodebuild -activetarget -sdk iphoneos2.2.1'

For those that don't know, Clang is great command line utility that will scan your Xcode project for memory and other bugs that you may not catch.

Thanks to Maior and InsertWittyName on #iphonedev (freenode IRC server).

Forcing a UIToolBar button to the right

By:
If you're adding a single button to a UIToolBar object and want it to be aligned to the right instead of the default left, add a UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace button before it in the array of buttons. This will force your button to be on the right.


UIBarButtonItem *flexibleSpaceLeft = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:nil action:nil];

[yourToolbar setItems:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:flexibleSpaceLeft, yourUIBarButtonItem, nil]];

[flexibleSpaceLeft release];
