For my iOS application I need to access the application version number. In Objective-C and Xcode done by accessing Info.plist but I want this functionality in the Corona SDK.
Is this possible? If yes then how?
Build-time properties can be provided in an optional build.settings file, which uses Lua syntax. You can set and retrieve plist values via the sample shown here.
settings =
{
orientation =
{
default = "portrait",
supported =
{
"portrait", "portraitUpsideDown", "landscapeRight", "landscapeLeft"
}
},
iphone =
{
plist =
{
UIInterfaceOrientation = "UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight",
UISupportedInterfaceOrientations =
{
"UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft",
"UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight"
},
UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend = true,
UIStatusBarHidden = true,
UIPrerenderedIcon = true
}
}
}
settings.iphone.plist["UIInterfaceOrientation~ipad"] = "UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait"
settings.iphone.plist["UISupportedInterfaceOrientations~ipad"] =
{
"UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait",
"UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown"
}
