This is a guard that tracks down UIKit access on threads other than main. This snippet is taken from the commercial iOS PDF framework http://pspdfkit.com, but relicensed under MIT. Works because a lot of calls internally call setNeedsDisplay or setNeedsLayout. Won't catch everything, but it's very lightweight and usually does the job.You might n…

Simple implementation of a thread safe mutable dictionary. In most cases, you want NSCache instead, but it can be useful in situations where you want to manually control what is evicted from the cache in low memory situations.**Warning:** I only use this for setting/getting keys. Enumeration is not thread safe here and will still throw exception…

Python implementation of PKCS #7 padding.
RFC 2315: PKCS#7 page 21
Some content-encryption algorithms assume the
input length is a multiple of k octets, where k > 1, and
let the application define a method for handling inputs
whose lengths are not a multiple of k octets. For such
algorithms, the method shall be to pad the input at the
trailing end with k - (l mod k) octets all having value k -

Declare on your main init that all other init methods should call. It's a nice additional semantic warning. Works with Xcode 5.1 and above. Not tested with earlier variants, but should just be ignored. A reference to this macro shortly appeared in https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/releasenotes/ObjectiveC/ModernizationObjC/AdoptingModernObj…

How to break (and re-enable) the native accessibility "delete" action for table views

If you've haven't seen it before, there is a cool accessibility feature in UITableView that allows the user to toggle between different actions. It's really very elegant and it's a powerful and convenient implementation for VoiceOver users on iOS. One could say that it's the VoiceOver version of the swipe-to-delete feature.

To try it out yourselves, open one of the built in apps like Mail or Notes and turn on VoiceOver. If you are afraid to accidentally delete some of your important notes or email, you can also create a new Master-Detail Application in Xcode and run it on your device. Navigate to one of the cells and use the "Rotor" (rotate with two fingers on the screen) to find the "Actions" item. Now you can swipe up and down do toggle between "Activate Item (default action)" and "Delete". If you now double tap, the cell gets deleted instead of selected.

image with actions

This is the default behavior and you get this accessibility out of the box with UITableView.
