Mobile SDK iOS: EPZPushPreferenceItem
From ePrize Developers Wiki
Contents |
Overview
The EPZPushPreferenceItem class stores all necessary information specific to a push notification preference object. EPZPushPreferenceItem objects are data classes that are used in the SDK’s built-in EPZPushPreferenceViewController, where the preference items are listed with toggle switches which the user can turn on/off as desired. All properties of this class are read-only.
Note: Unless you are creating a custom view controller to handle user preferences (and thus not using the SDK’s built-in EPZPushPreferenceViewController), you will not need to create instances of this class, or otherwise reference instances of this class. By default, the SDK takes care of keeping track of getting/setting values, and syncing the values for saving when the savePushNotificationPreferences: method is called to save a user’s preferences.
