Erica Sadun has written, coauthored, and contributed to about three dozen books about technology, particularly in the areas of programming, digital video, and digital photography. An unrepentant geek, Sadun has never met a gadget she didn’t need. Her checkered past includes run-ins with NeXT, Newton, iPhone, and myriad successful and unsuccessful technologies. When not writing, she and her geek husband parent three adorable geeks-in-training, who regard their parents with restrained bemusement.

iPhone Developers ... This is a Must-Have Book
2008年10月29日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み
Amazonで購入
Love the book. Erica has done yeowoman's work, there is no question about it. "Awesome developer" and "clear writer" often do not mix very well ... it's always a joy to find a book whose author is so obviously a combination of the two.

I should warn readers up-front however ... you need to come to Erica's book knowing Objective-C. Experience with Cocoa in Mac OS X is also a big plus. The target audience for the book is, in my estimation, someone just like me ... someone who knows Cocoa in Mac OS X and wants to get coding (correctly) to the iPhone in an organized way.

Erica's approach is one I really like ... she combines tutorial and code recipe into a seamless conversation with her readers. If you need to "do something", you can probably find a recipe quickly ... but if you need to understand -why- you're doing something, you can read the book cover-to-cover to get all the answers. So the book is, magically, both a tutorial and a reference. And, I bet, this magic is going to make Erica the Aaron Hillegass of the iPhone. :)

I'm giving this book a five-star rating, but there are a few glitches readers should know about. You'll find some omissions/typos in this edition (I suspect because it went so quickly to press) -- there's nothing that experienced Cocoa/Objective-C programmers can't easily work around (but if you are new to either, I could see where you could become frustrated). I suspect later editions will contain loads of corrections. The important thing, I think, is that Erica has bridged a gap with her book ... a gap between Apple's documentation and real, live apps.

An excellent cookbook, not a tutorial for absolute beginners
2009年3月30日に英国でレビュー済み
Amazonで購入
To properly appreciate this book one needs to read its title attentively: it is a cookbook, not a tutorial for beginners. If you will try to use it to learn the basics of iPhone SDK, you will be disappointed. There is a section where the author explains the basics but it isn't that good. You can feel there that the author is a PhD for whom it is very important to tell you about the omnipresent MVC pattern.

There are other books that teach the basics perfectly well, for me it was "Beginning iPhone Development" by Dave Mark and Jeff LaMarche. But once you know the basics and start creating your own applications, you will want to know how to do certain things in various different ways, and this is where "The iPhone Developer's Cookbook" becomes indispensable. I keep it on my table and as soon as I want to do something but don't know how, I turn to this book.

I'd say this is the best *second* book for a beginner iPhone developer.

Not For Beginners
2008年10月28日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み
Amazonで購入
The "Who This Book Is For" section of this book states: "This book is written for new iPhone developers with projects to get done and a new unfamiliar SDK in their hands." I am rating this book three stars because it does not live up to this statement.

As someone familiar enough with Xcode and iPhone development to understand the Apple templates and Cocoa design patterns, I was sadly disappointed when I discovered that the code listings in this book were not separated into .m and .h files. Rather, all code is jumbled up into long single-file, multipage listings. The author even states that this format is suited for book publishing. I whole-heartedly feel that this single issue makes this book worthless to a new iPhone developer. Why? A newly created default iPhone project in Xcode has separate .h and .m files.

In addition to the above-mentioned flaw, this book does little beyond Chapter one to hand-hold a new iPhone developer. This book in not instructional at all in this regard and is only suited for those with several months or more of Xcode/iPhone SDK experience. That said, Chapter one contains incredibly detailed and well thought out introductory material, enough so that it may mislead you into thinking this book is for beginners. Chapter two jumps right into code without even explaining the bare essentials of Obj-C.

Furthermore, I think the lack of IB (Interface Builder) instruction will only confuse matters more. I equate this to coding in VB without The Visual Studio IDE.

It is clear, however, that Ms. Sadun knows what she is talking about when it comes to iPhone development. I give her credit for that. Unfortunately, her book comes off no clearer than Apple's own documentation.

I recommend you look elsewhere if you are starting out as a brand-new iPhone developer.

Vorkenntnisse in Objective-C erforderlich

Das Buch führt im Titel auch das Wort "Cookbook". Damit ist im Allgemeinen eine mehr oder weniger lose Sammlung von Code(Splittern) gemeint.

Als Einführung habe ich mir das Buch von Aaron Hillegass gekauft. Die bezieht sich zwar auf die Cocoa-Programmierung des Mac und nicht auf die des iPhones, die Programmierkonzepte sind aber nahezu identisch.

Danach sind die Code-Beispiele aus diesem Buch gut verständlich.

Zusätzlich kann man alle Code-Beispiele (als jeweils komplettes Projekt) von [...] runterladen. Weiterhin kann man dieses Buch auch als PDF-Datei kaufen (InformIT). Davon gibt es sogar schon ein Update.
Allerdings ziehe ich es immer vor, ein Buch vor mir zu haben.

Ein Medium-bedingten Nachteil hat das Buch: Wenn man sich das iPhone-SDK 2.2 runtergeladen hat, haben sich die Templates für die Projektvorlagen geändert (komplizierter), die Erica vorschlägt.

How I launched StationStops for iPhone
2008年10月23日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み
Amazonで購入
As a Linux developer, I had never touched a Mac for development in my life, but really wanted to launch my own iPhone app, StationStops for iPhone, which gives users offline access to Metro-North Grand Central train timetables.

Although due to NDA restrictions the book was delayed, when it finally did come out in PDF and finally book form, it was a critical piece to getting my iPhone app out the door and onto the iTunes store.

I think this is the first book that covers the official SDK, which is the critical difference between this book and the books before it.
