Thanks you for putting this together.
I followed the tutorial closely and the following lines were the only ones missing (in BookDetailViewController.m) that weren’t mentioned explicitly and prevented me from building the code:
#import “Book.h”
@synthesize aBook;
… After I downloaded your source, I was able to peek inside and resolve this. But the build didn’t show the expected visual output. It seems the older auto project generated root view controller was still hooked up to the window. I didn’t have the motivation to dig deeper into the source as I’m a beginner but it would be fantastic if you could actively talk about how to clean up the auto-generated views and wire up the one in your tutorial to an actual window 🙂

Hi
Great tutorial but i just had one question, i would like to show an image either in the current detail view or in a new detail view possibly accessed by a button at the bottom of the current view any help would be much appreciated.
If you think that the button at the bottom is the best idea i would like the url for the image loaded into the button from the xml data on the internet.
As i said i would really appreciate the help as i am still a beginner and would like to be able to complete this app.
Thanks
Brad

I was able to run your code – thanks!
My only problem is when I added a new View (this is my login) before the RootViewController – when I click the button it shows the Main table view but when I click the data on each row it didn\\\’t show the details view like nothing happened. Any idea what I did wrong? Details View works flawlessly without the login View

I changed the link in the app delegate .m file to my own XML file on the internet and now the app builds but crashes with the error “terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘NSException’ ” I’ve also tried changing the link to a different XML file on the same site with identical results. (http://chakrainteractive.com/mob/0-vin/Books.xml)
Any idea what is going on?

PLEASE HELP!!

How do you do all of this in Tab Bar Application which has two view controllers; one with this (parsing an XML file) and another one with only a UIViewController. I know how to do the 2nd controller, but I cannot figure out how to do the first one.
Because in the UINavigation App, you parsed the XML file from the delegate itself. Is it the same with UITabBar App?
Thanks a million!
