New stuff from WWDC 2015

Here's my own list of the interesting stuff announced during this year's WWDC, collected from the keynotes, various Apple docs, blog posts and tweets.

If you're planning to watch the videos, I really recommend this Mac app that helps you download and watch them: https://github.com/insidegui/WWDC.

Rough-n-dirty implementation of the unusual horizontal paging used by Twitter.app's inline promoted app cards.
typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, BLVScrollDirection) {
// These are by the content offset,
// not by the direction your finger moves.
BLVScrollDirection_RightToLeft,
BLVScrollDirection_LeftToRight
};
@interface BLVNonStandardPagingCalculation : NSObject
@property (nonatomic, assign) NSInteger centeredCardIndex; // Defaults to NSNotFound

This article was originally written for objc.io issue 12, but didn't make the cut. It was intended to be read in the context of the other articles, so if you aren't familiar with concepts such as CALayer property animations and the role of actionForKey:, read the articles in that issue first.

Hacking UIView animation blocks for fun and profit

In this article, I'm going to explore a way that we can create views that implement custom Core Animation property animations in a natural way.

As we know, layers in iOS come in two flavours: Backing layers and hosted layers. The only difference between them is that the view acts as the layer delegate for its backing layer, but not for any hosted sublayers.

In order to implement the UIView transactional animation blocks, UIView disables all animations by default and then re-enables them individually as required. It does this using the actionForLayer:forKey: method.

Somewhat strangely, UIView doesn't enable animations for every property that CALayer does by default. A notable example is the layer.contents property, which is animatable by default for a hosted layer, but cannot be animated using a UIView animation block.

var randomNumbers = [42, 12, 88, 62, 63, 56, 1, 77, 88, 97, 97, 20, 45, 91, 62, 2, 15, 31, 59, 5]
func partition(v: Int[], left: Int, right: Int) -> Int {
var i = left
for j in (left + 1)..(right + 1) {
if v[j] < v[left] {
i += 1
(v[i], v[j]) = (v[j], v[i])
}
}

4. Choose “Problem is not listed here” and be sure to mention that you are asking for a refund because it doesn’t work as expected.
