I've been using the following code to register for remote notifications using Objective C.
Recently, after building and running the app on a testing device, an iPad mini running iOS 9.3.5, the Debugger Window no longer prints the device token. registerForRemoteNotificationTypes: is not supported in iOS 8.0 and later.
I am trying to use the device token to send a test notification using Sending Push Notifications Using Command-Line Tools
//REGISTER FOR THE NOTIFICATIONS TYPES
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary*)launchOptions
{
//-- Set Notification
if ([application respondsToSelector:@selector(isRegisteredForRemoteNotifications)])
{
// iOS 8 Notifications
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert | UIUserNotificationTypeBadge) categories:nil]];
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
else
{
// iOS < 8 Notifications
_storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
(UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert)];
}
_storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
(UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert)];
if (launchOptions != nil)
{
NSDictionary* dictionary = [launchOptions objectForKey:UIApplicationLaunchOptionsRemoteNotificationKey];
if (dictionary != nil)
{
NSLog(@"Launched from push notification: %@", dictionary);
/*[self addMessageFromRemoteNotification:dictionary updateUI:NO];*/
}
}
return YES;
}
I have also tried the following:
if (@available(iOS , *)) {
// iOS 8 Notifications: Registering for notifications and types
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert | UIUserNotificationTypeBadge) categories:nil]];
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
} else {
// iOS < 8 Notifications
_storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
(UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert)];
}
And Xcode gives a parse error that says Expected a version of the form 'major[.minor[.subminor]]'
What is the correct way to register for push notifications on iOS 9 and above using Objective C?
