FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Veitshöchheim - July 2, 2009 - Our experience is yours at iPhone Bootcamp in Germany, September 21-25, 2009
Big Nerd Ranch Europe, premier provider of week-long, intensive training classes for Mac and iPhone programmers, announces a new date for its leading iPhone Bootcamp at the distraction free setting of Kloster Eberbach, near Frankfurt, Germany. September 21-25, 2009 is the next opportunity to learn iPhone development from one of the most experienced instructors in Objective-C and Cocoa (touch) programming: Scott Ritchie has been developing with and teaching about Objective-C since he joined NeXT Computer in 1990 as a systems engineer and later lead developer trainer. Since 2000 he has held several training and engineering positions with Apple, most recently working with both AppKit and UIKit development.
Prior iPhone Bootcamps at Big Nerd Ranch sold out within just weeks after being scheduled. Big Nerd Ranch Europe meets the high demand with this new most up-to-date iPhone training class in September, covering iPhone OS 3.0 features.
Students signing up by August 14, 2009 apply for the early bird price and save Euro 200.
Since its release in 2007 the iPhone created an immense interest in the new mobile device and a desire on the part of innovative developers and companies to begin creating applications for it. With the new iPhone 3GS and the recent iPhone OS 3.0 software update the number of possibilities and applications for the iPhone already exploded and will go beyond what we can imagine, today. Many prior iPhone Bootcamp students are part of this big adventure, already.
The course requires no previous experience in coding in Objective-C or for the Mac or the iPhone, but students attending the bootcamp should be familiar with C and an object-oriented language like Java or C++. The class is taught in English on the latest releases of Mac OS X and Xcode and addresses all devices, the iPhone 3GS, 3G, 1st generation, and the iPod touch.
After class, novice students will understand the integral components of iPhone development and emerge fully skilled in the ability to develop complex applications for the iPhone and iPod touch. Key topics include, but are not limited to:
- Learning the Objective-C language used in all iPhone development
- Using and understanding fundamental design pattern, like delegation, notification, key-value coding and observing
- Dealing with multi-touch events, displaying text, and getting input from the keyboard
- Using toolbars and view controllers to create applications with multiple views
- Accessing telephony and web services, and accessing the camera function
- Using the accelerometer, dealing with orientation, and using Core Location to determine user location
- Drawing with Quartz and OpenGL and making graphics move with Core Animation (CALayer)
- Getting and creating contacts and events for contacts and the calendar
- Using TableView to create custom table view cells and SQLite to store and retrieve data
- Using Instruments to locate performance problems and memory leaks
“We are just beginning to realize the application development potential in the iPhone and the handheld device market,” said Aaron Hillegass, Big Nerd Ranch founder and President. “In the coming years, or even months, we can expect to see groundbreaking new developments in smartphone technology. People who sign up for iPhone Bootcamp recognize those possibilities and are the types of innovators who will be a part of making that happen. And there is no organization better equipped to help programmers move from possibility to reality than the Big Nerd Ranch.“
This class has been taught at large companies like Cisco, AT+T, SAS, and other smaller companies.
