iPhone app developers need all the help they can get as far as advanced scripts and codes are concerned. While they can get a lot of them online, here is one that is sure to be a big boost to their needs.

With the need for reference and source codes in the programming needs, About Objects releases of a couple of iPhone 3.0 developer examples as free, downloadable Xcode projects. These example projects form a progressive series of codes designed to aid developers on their needs, another resource that they can surely find helpful.

These apps are free for use by iPhone developers either for learning or for actual use. Here are some of the example projects released by About Objects:

• First App demonstrates the basic steps to configuring an iPhone app’s user interface programatically, without requiring an Interface Builder (.nib) file.
• Editable Detail View demonstrates the use of controls such as text fields and buttons, including how to connect controls to the code that implements their behavior.
• Animating a View introduces developers to the fundamentals of using Core Animation to animate view transformations.
• Simple TableView demonstrates how to configure a table view programatically to present a list of values.
• TableView with Navigation builds on the Simple TableView app to show how to use a navigation controller to manage navigating from a list to a detail view by tapping on a table row.
• Editable TableView demonstrates how to add, remove, and reorder rows in a list view, and how to edit model object property values in a detail view.
• TableView File Persistence shows how to create and populate a list of model objects from a property list (plist) file, and how to persist changes to the list.

These samples can be downloaded at the About Objects website.
