Upgrading your iPhone OS 2.0 Application to 3.0 and Deprecation Warnings

I just wanted to post a brief entry here regarding getting rid of deprecated warnings when upgrading your iPhone applications from OS 2.0 to 3.x.

The warnings I was getting are as follows:

warning: ‘setImage:’ is deprecated (declared at /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/
iPhoneSimulator3.0.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/UIKit.framework/
Headers/UITableViewCell.h:199)

warning: ‘setText:’ is deprecated (declared at /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/
iPhoneSimulator3.0.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/UIKit.framework/
Headers/UITableViewCell.h:199)

Before…

View Code OBJC

//This worked perfect in OS 2.0
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
     static NSString *UserSettingButtonCellIdentifier = @"UserSetting";
	UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:UserSettingButtonCellIdentifier];
	if (cell == nil) {
		cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero reuseIdentifier: UserSettingButtonCellIdentifier] autorelease];
	}
     NSUInteger row = [indexPath row];
     UserSetting *rowData = [list objectAtIndex:row];
     UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"bullet_ball_glass_blue.png"];
     if (row != 0)
         cell.image = image; //WARNING here
     cell.text = rowData.name; //WARNING here
     [rowData release];
     return cell;
}
//the tableView method is completely deprecated.
- (UITableViewCellAccessoryType)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView accessoryTypeForRowWithIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
	return UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
}

After, doing the mods to get rid of the deprecated warnings:

View Code OBJC

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
	static NSString *UserSettingButtonCellIdentifier = @"UserSetting";
	UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:UserSettingButtonCellIdentifier];
	if (cell == nil) {
		cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero reuseIdentifier: UserSettingButtonCellIdentifier] autorelease];
	}
	NSUInteger row = [indexPath row];
	UserSetting *rowData = [list objectAtIndex:row];
	UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"bullet_ball_glass_blue.png"];
	if (row != 0)
		cell.imageView.image = image; //FIXED here
	cell.textLabel.text = rowData.name; //FIXED here
 
#ifdef __IPHONE_3_0
        //This is a replacement for the tableView method
	cell.accessoryType =  UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
#endif
 
	[rowData release];
	return cell;
}
#ifndef __IPHONE_3_0
- (UITableViewCellAccessoryType)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView accessoryTypeForRowWithIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
	return UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
}
#endif
