'UITabBarItem' may not respond to 'SetAction'



I have a number of tabs in my app. The tabs are working with no issues, but I'm getting some warning messages (in the title above) which I would like to get rid of. My code is as follows:







-(void)pressItem1:(id)sender {

[self presentModalViewController:settingsViewController animated:YES];

}



-(void)pressItem2:(id)sender {

[self presentModalViewController:infoViewController animated:YES];

}



-(void)pressItem3:(id)sender {

[self presentModalViewController:aboutViewController animated:YES];

}



-(void)viewDidLoad {

self.view.backgroundColor = [[UIColor alloc] initWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"background.png"]];



CGRect frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 480, 49);

UIView *v = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:frame];

UIImage *i = [UIImage imageNamed:@"smallMenuBackground.png"];

UIColor *c = [[UIColor alloc] initWithPatternImage:i];

v.backgroundColor = c;

[c release];

[mainTabBar insertSubview:v atIndex:0];

[v release];



[settingsBarItem setAction:@selector(pressItem1:)];

[infoBarItem setAction:@selector(pressItem2:)];

[aboutBarItem setAction:@selector(pressItem3:)];



//initialSyncSwitch = NO;

[super viewDidLoad];

}







The tabs are working, but there is probably a better way of doing it so I don't get these warnings.

  1. You don't set actions directly on a UITabBarItem. Instead, you should be implementing the UITabBarDelegate in the UIViewController that creates it. Specifically, the delegate should implement:

    - (void)tabBar:(UITabBar *)tabBar didSelectItem:(UITabBarItem *)item


    In here, you can call pressItem1, pressItem2, etc based on which item is passed.

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
