iOS SDK v1.2

[R. Kevin Nelson]

Hi all,

We're happy announce today's release of version 1.2 of the Rdio iOS SDK.

It is available at the usual location: http://www.rdio.com/media/static/developer/ios/rdio-ios.tar.gz

--

What's new in v1.2?

• The Rdio object supports a new method, `-authorizeUsingAccessToken:`, which does not automatically pop up the login view on failure (issue #30).
  
• The Rdio method `-authorizeUsingAccessToken:fromController:` is now deprecated and will be removed in version 2.0.  Please update your code to use `-authorizeUsingAccessToken:` instead.
  
• Bug fixes for the RDPlayer methods `-playSource:`, `-playSources:`, `-queueSource:`, and `-queueSources:`
  
• Fix a race condition that was causing multiple sequential calls of queueSource(s) to result in non-deterministic source ordering
  
• Calling `queueSource(s)` before calling `playSource(s)` no longer starts playback.
• Bubble up errors related to unplayable tracks.
• New RDPlayer methods:
• -skipToIndex:
• -resetQueue
• New RDPlayerDelegate method:
• -rdioPlayerCouldNotStreamTrack:
• Tidy up NSLog messages
• Update documentation to indicate that all Web Service calls take NSString parameters
• Update internal OAuth library for better stability

Let us know if you have any questions!

Happy hacking,

Kevin

Great update thanks.

One request for a future release: Can rdioPlayerCouldNotStreamTrack provide a reason?

Thanks,

Stuart

Hi Stuart,

In this release, `rdioPlayerCouldNotStreamTrack` is almost certainly going to be due to track availability in the user's region.  We'll be using error codes and messages much more in the next major release, so it's possible that we'll change this there to something like `rdioPlayerFailedToStreamTrack:withError:`.

Thanks for the feedback!

Is handleOpenURL now required in 1.2?

In our app we don't initialize the Rdio api until the user signs wants to (they could sign into other services as well). Now when authenticating, we are getting the error: 

Your app isn't registered for the correct url scheme

is this required now?

Thanks

We've got things working now - however you might want to update those release notes to say that you should handle the openURL protocol as of 1.2.

Thanks

Hi Matt,

Sounds like we might have to release a patch.  The openURL protocol was not supposed to be part of the 1.2 release.

Thanks for the bug report!
