to Beta TapLynx for the iPad
We know is in beta.
We know that there isn't any search feature in the iPad version.
We know that you continue to say that iPhone Framework has precedence.
We also know that is quite useless to post some questions here because
no one would waste his time to answer them.
But.. despite all that... we would like to use this library, we bought
a license for that. We spent money.

Here's the question.
Ok, there's no search engine, and because we NEED IT for sure, we
decided to write one on our own.
We tried to directly access the Article.db that is in the Documents/
directory of the deployed app.
We tried to use the default sqlite3 C API to access the DB, but with
any success (probably it's our fault). But googleing around, a and
reading a lot of things we found that it's a great effort to use the
sqlite3 C API (lot of code and the one we tried to use, failed
accessing the tables in the DB).
So I searched for some wrapper to do the DB stuffs.
Every "voice" we found during the search suggested FMDB (http://
gusmueller.com/blog/archives/2008/06/new_home_for_fmdb.html).
Downloaded, followed a very good example (http://www.highoncoding.com/
Articles/
836_Persisting_iOS_Application_Data_in_SQLite_Database_Using_FMDB.aspx),
include the libraries in my project...
As soon as I compile it...
"ld: duplicate symbol _OBJC_IVAR_$_FMStatement.statement in /../../
libiPadTapLynx_1.0b9.a(FMDatabase.o) and /../../..build/Objects-normal/
i386/FMDatabase.o for architecture i386
Command /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/
bin/llvm-gcc-4.2 failed with exit code 1"

Hell... the library is already compiled in the Taplynx library ????
Probably I missed something (that means I'm not a so skilled Obj-C
progrmamer) but... how can I include that class to process some DB
calls? Is there a way to workaround this?

Thanks

Hi Marco,

Thanks for posting! It's true that this group has been dormant lately,
but we want you to know that your questions are read thoroughly by
staff at TapLynx and we are committed to answering them in a timely
fashion. That said, we also enjoy the feed back from peers and google
groups should be considered a community resource as well. Because the
iPad group is still in Beta, there are a small number of members, but
we are happy to research your questions.

We are currently researching your issue and will get back to you.

Lastly, for future reference paid customers should email directly to
sup...@taplynx.com to have their issues assigned an official ticket
number.

Talk to you soon,
Ashley

I solved the issue using the C API instead of the FMDB wrapper.
By the way, we also would like to know how can we find infos about
cached data (mainly images downloaded locally).
I wasn't able to find infos pointing to a local saved image file for
the single article.
Can someone help us find this infos in the DB?

Thanks

Dear Ashley,
I followed you suggestion and sent a support request to email you gave
me.
But till now we didn't receive any answer.

Is this project dead or what else?

Thanks!
