Book description
Under iOS, applications can share information and data as well
as move control from one application to another using a variety of
system features. Each application has access to a common system
pasteboard that allows copying and pasting across apps. Users can
transfer documents from one app to another app that supports that
format. They can request a number of system-supplied "actions" to
apply to a document, such as printing, tweeting, or posting to a
Facebook wall. Apps can declare custom URL schemes that can be
embedded in text and web pages. This eBook by bestselling author
and developer Erica Sadun introduces the ways you can integrate
documents and data sharing between applications. You’ll see
how to add these features into your applications and use them
smartly to make your app a cooperative citizen of the iOS
ecosystem.
