Comments on: Set Status Bar Color and Background http://iPhoneDeveloperTips.com/user-interface/set-status-bar-color-and-background.html Tips and Tricks for iPhone developers Sat, 13 Mar 2010 20:18:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: romain pechayre http://iPhoneDeveloperTips.com/user-interface/set-status-bar-color-and-background.html/comment-page-1#comment-4016 romain pechayre Thu, 09 Jul 2009 20:38:09 +0000 http://iPhoneDeveloperTips.com/?p=2559#comment-4016 Thank you for the post. If I can specify something, the difference beween using info.plist and coding in application delegate is that ApplicationDidFinishLaunshing is called once all application launching stuff has been done. Therefore, if you put some core related to statusbar here, it will have an effect almost one second after launching of your app. On the other hand, if you use the info.plist, you can see it as a direct access to UIApplication singleton instance itself, and therefore this setting will apply instantaneously. So I would recommend using info.plist whenever it is possible and application delegate only when you don't have the choice. Thank you for the post.
