  在所有的移动开发平台数据持久化都是很重要的部分:在j2me中是rms或保存在应用程序的目录中,在symbian中可以保存在相应的磁盘目录中和数据库中。symbian中因为权限认证的原因,在3rd上大多数只能访问应用程序的private目录或其它系统共享目录。在iphone中,apple博采众长,提供了多种数据持久化的方法,下面笔者会逐个进行详细的讲解。

  iphone提供的数据持久化的方法,从数据保存的方式上讲可以分为三大部分:属性列表、对象归档、嵌入式数据库(SQLite3)、其他方法。

  一、属性列表NSUserDefaults

  NSUserDefaults类的使用和NSKeyedArchiver有很多类似之处,但是查看NSUserDefaults的定义可以看出,NSUserDefaults直接继承自NSObject而NSKeyedArchiver 继承自NSCoder。这意味着NSKeyedArchiver实际上是个归档持久化的类,也就可以使用NSCoder类的[encodeObject: (id)objv forKey:(NSString *)key]方法来对数据进行持久化存储。

  - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {

  NSString *strOne = @“Persistent data1”;

  NSString *strTwo = @“Persistent data 2”;

  NSMutableArray *persistentArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

  [persistentArray addObject:strOne];

  [persistentArray addObject:strTwo];

  //archive

  NSUserDefaults *persistentDefaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];

  [persistentDefaults setObject:persistentArray forKey:@“myDefault”];

  NSString *descriptionDefault = [persistentDefaults description];

  NSLog(@“NSUserDefaults description is :%@”,descriptionDefault);

  //unarchive

  NSArray *UnpersistentArray =

  [persistentDefaults objectForKey:@“myDefault”];

  NSString *UnstrOne = [UnpersistentArray objectAtIndex:0];

  NSString *UnstrTwo = [UnpersistentArray objectAtIndex:1];

  NSLog(@“UnstrOne = %@,UnstrTwo = %@”,UnstrOne,UnstrTwo);

  // Override point for customization after application launch

  [window makeKeyAndVisible];

  }

  二、对象归档NSKeyedArchiver和NSKeyedUnarchiver

  iPhone和symbian 3rd一样,会为每一个应用程序生成一个私有目录,这个目录位于

  /Users/sundfsun2009/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/User/Applications下,并随即生成一个数字字母串作为目录名,在每一次应用程序启动时,这个字母数字串都是不同于上一次的,上一次的应用程序目录信息被转换成名为.DS_Store隐藏文件,这个目录的文件结构如下图:

  通常使用Documents目录进行数据持久化的保存,而这个Documents目录可以通过NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,NSUserdomainMask,YES)得到,代码如下:

  - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {

  NSString *strOne = @“Persistent data1”;

  NSString *strTwo = @“Persistent data 2”;

  NSArray *persistentArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:strOne,strTwo,nil];

  NSArray *pathArray = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSAllDomainsMask, YES);

  int pathLen = [pathArray count];

  NSLog(@“path number is :%d”,pathLen);

  NSString *filePath;

  for(int i = 0; i 《 pathLen; i++)

  {

  filePath = [pathArray objectAtIndex:i];

  NSLog(@“%d path is :%@”,i,filePath);

  }

  NSString *myFilename = [filePath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@“myFile.rtf”];

  NSLog(@“myfile‘s path is :%@”,myFilename);

  // no files generated in correspond directory now

  [NSKeyedArchiver archiveRootObject:persistentArray toFile:myFilename];

  // now the myFile.rtf is generated

  // Override point for customization after application launch

  [window makeKeyAndVisible];

  }

  NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains()的第二个参数是个枚举值,在笔者的测试代码中,只有NSUserDomainMask和NSAllDomainsMask可以获取到目录数为1,其余的皆为0,打印出来的结果如下:

  Terminating in response to SpringBoard‘s termination.

  从打印的结果如下,每次应用程序启动时生成的数字字母串目录名字并不一样。在调用[NSKeyedArchiver archiveRootObject:persistentArray toFile:myFilename]方法前,文件myFile.rtf并每生成,只有在调用此方法后才产生相应的文件。

  从打印的结果如下,每次应用程序启动时生成的数字字母串目录名字并不一样。在调用[NSKeyedArchiver archiveRootObject:persistentArray toFile:myFilename]方法前,文件myFile.rtf并每生成,只有在调用此方法后才产生相应的文件。

  下面需要把数据从属性列表中读取出来,在上面的代码中,笔者使用NSArray保存数据。但在大多数应用程序中,数据的尺寸并不是固定的,这个时候就需要使用NSMutalbeArray动态的保存数据,代码优化如下:

  - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {

  NSString *myFilename;

  // archive

  {

  NSString *strOne = @“Persistent data1”;

  NSString *strTwo = @“Persistent data 2”;

  NSMutableArray *persistentArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

  [persistentArray addObject:strOne];

  [persistentArray addObject:strTwo];

  NSArray *pathArray = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSAllDomainsMask, YES);

  int pathLen = [pathArray count];

  NSLog(@“path number is :%d”,pathLen);

  NSString *filePath;

  for(int i = 0; i 《 pathLen; i++)

  {

  filePath = [pathArray objectAtIndex:i];

  NSLog(@“%d path is :%@”,i,filePath);

  }

  myFilename = [filePath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@“myFile.rtf”];

  NSLog(@“myfile’s path is :%@”,myFilename);

  [NSKeyedArchiver archiveRootObject:persistentArray toFile:myFilename];

  }

  // unarchive

  {

  NSArray *unarchiveArray = [NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithFile:myFilename];

  NSString *UnstrOne = [unarchiveArray objectAtIndex:0];

  NSString *UnstrTwo = [unarchiveArray objectAtIndex:1];

  NSLog(@“UnstrOne = %@,UnstrTwo = %@”,UnstrOne,UnstrTwo);

  }

  // Override point for customization after application launch

  [window makeKeyAndVisible];

  }

  输出结果如下:

  [Session started at 2009-11-10 22:41:57 +0800.]

  2009-11-10 22:41:59.344 PersistentExample[1082:207] path number is :1

  2009-11-10 22:41:59.346 PersistentExample[1082:207] 0 path is :/Users/sundfsun2009/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/User/Applications/055CD17C-864E-4A83-ABF0-5F01EE85BD5A/Documents

  2009-11-10 22:41:59.355 PersistentExample[1082:207] myfile‘s path is :/Users/sundfsun2009/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/User/Applications/055CD17C-864E-4A83-ABF0-5F01EE85BD5A/Documents/myFile.rtf

  2009-11-10 22:41:59.357 PersistentExample[1082:207] UnstrOne = Persistent data1,UnstrTwo = Persistent data 2

  Terminating in response to SpringBoard’s termination.

  从上面的图中可以看到,目录中还有个tmp目录,读者也可以把数据保存在tmp目录中,获取这个目录使用NSTemporaryDirectory()方法。

  三、嵌入式数据库(SQLite3)

  嵌入式数据库持久化数据就是把数据保存在iphone的嵌入式数据库系统SQLite3中,本质上来说,数据库持久化操作是基于文件持久化基础之上的。

  要使用嵌入式数据库SQLite3,首先需要加载其动态库libsqlite3.dylib,这个文件位于/Xcode3.1.4/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS3.1.sdk/usr/lib目录下。在Framework文件夹上右击,选择“Adding-》Existing Files.。.”,定位到上述目录并加载到文件夹。

  首先在头文件中做如下修改:

  #import 《UIKit/UIKit.h》

  #include “sqlite3.h”

  #define kFileName @“mydb.sql”

  @interface PersistentExampleAppDelegate : NSObject 《UIApplicationDelegate》 {

  sqlite3 *database;

  UIWindow *window;

  }

  @property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UIWindow *window;

  @end

  - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {

  NSArray *path = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);

  NSString *paths = [[path objectAtIndex:0] stringByAppendingPathComponent:kFileName];

  NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];

  BOOL findFile = [fileManager fileExistsAtPath:paths];

  NSLog(@“Database file path = %@”,paths);

  // 如果找到了数据库文件

  if(findFile)

  {

  NSLog(@“Database file have already existed.”);

  if(sqlite3_open([paths UTF8String], &database) != SQLITE_OK)//打开数据库失败

  {

  sqlite3_close(database);

  NSAssert(0,@“Failed to open database”);

  }

  }else

  {

  NSLog(@“Database file does not exsit!”);

  if(sqlite3_open([paths UTF8String], &database) != SQLITE_OK)//打开数据库失败

  {

  sqlite3_close(database);

  NSAssert(0,@“Failed to open database”);

  }

  }

  char *errorMsg;

  //创建表

  NSString *createSQL = @“create table if not exists fields (row integer primary key, field_data text);”;

  if(sqlite3_exec(database, [createSQL UTF8String],NULL,NULL,&errorMsg)!=SQLITE_OK)

  {

  sqlite3_close(database);

  NSAssert1(0,@“Error creating table: %s”,errorMsg);

  }

  NSString *strOne = @“Persistent data1”;

  NSString *strTwo = @“Persistent data 2”;

  NSMutableArray *persistentArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

  [persistentArray addObject:strOne];

  [persistentArray addObject:strTwo];

  for (int i = 0; i 《 [persistentArray count]; i++) {

  NSString *upDataSQL = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@“insert or replace into

  fields (row,field_data) values (%d,‘%@’);”,i,[persistentArray objectAtIndex:i]];

  char* errorMsg;

  if(sqlite3_exec(database,[upDataSQL UTF8String],NULL,NULL,&errorMsg)

  != SQLITE_OK)

  {

  sqlite3_close(database);

  NSAssert(0,@“Failed to open database”);

  }

  }

  //unarchive

  NSString *query = @“select row, field_data from fields order by row”;//查找表中的数据

  sqlite3_stmt *statement;

  if(sqlite3_prepare_v2(database, [query UTF8String], -1, &statement, nil)

  == SQLITE_OK)

  {

  while(sqlite3_step(statement) == SQLITE_ROW)

  {

  int row = sqlite3_column_int(statement, 0);

  char *rowData = (char *)sqlite3_column_text(statement, 1);

  NSString *fieldName = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@“show%d”,row];

  NSString *fieldValue = [[NSString alloc] initWithUTF8String:rowData];

  NSLog(@“fieldName is :%@,fieldValue is :%@”,fieldName,fieldValue);

  [fieldName release];

  [fieldValue release];

  }

  sqlite3_finalize(statement);

  }

  // Override point for customization after application launch

  [window makeKeyAndVisible];

  }

  在上面的代码中,我们使用

  NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];

  BOOL findFile = [fileManager fileExistsAtPath:paths];

  来判断数据库文件是否已经存在,其实在大多数情况下是没有必要的,sqlite3_open()方法会自动帮我们判断数据库文件是否存在,如果不存在则创建心的数据库文件。

  四、其它方法

  除了上面的三种方法来保存持久化数据以外,我们还可以用写文件到磁盘的方式来保存持久化数据。

  - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {

  NSString *strOne = @“Persistent data1”;

  NSString *strTwo = @“Persistent data 2”;

  NSMutableArray *persistentArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

  [persistentArray addObject:strOne];

  [persistentArray addObject:strTwo];

  NSArray *filePathArray = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);

  NSString *filePath =

  - [[filePathArray objectAtIndex:0] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@“mydatas.plist”];

  [[NSArray arrayWithObjects:persistentArray,nil] writeToFile:filePath atomically:NO];

  //load

  NSMutableArray *saveDataArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

  if([[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:filePath])

  saveDataArray = [NSMutableArray arrayWithContentsOfFile:filePath];

  else

  saveDataArray = [NSMutableArray arrayWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle

  - mainBundle] pathForResource:@“Savedatas” ofType:@“plist”]];

  -

  NSArray *strArray = [saveDataArray objectAtIndex:0];

  NSString *UnstrOne = [strArray objectAtIndex:0];

  NSString *UnstrTwo = [strArray objectAtIndex:1];

  // Override point for customization after application launch

  [window makeKeyAndVisible];

  }
