No visible @interface for 'MessagingService' declares the selector 'registerForRemoteNotifications'

General

Hello,

I’m trying to port my existing iOS implementation for push notifications from an old version to the latest Backendless version. I am using the latest backendless version using cocoapods. In the docs I found the following statement which I had not in my old code:

[backendless.messaging registerForRemoteNotifications];

This does not compile in Xcode. No visible @interface for ‘MessagingService’ declares the selector ‘registerForRemoteNotifications’. What could be causing this?

Thanks,
Maarten

Hi,

With Xcode8/iOS10 you need this code

if ([[NSProcessInfo processInfo] operatingSystemVersion].majorVersion >= 10) {
 
 UNUserNotificationCenter* center = [UNUserNotificationCenter currentNotificationCenter];
 [center requestAuthorizationWithOptions:(UNAuthorizationOptionAlert + UNAuthorizationOptionSound)
 completionHandler:^(BOOL granted, NSError * _Nullable error) {
 }];
 }
 else {
 UIUserNotificationType types = UIUserNotificationTypeBadge | UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert;
 UIUserNotificationSettings *settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:types categories:nil];
 [[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings:settings];
 }
 [[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotifications];

instead
[backendless.messaging registerForRemoteNotifications];

We will fix the doc soon.

After including

#import <UserNotifications/UserNotifications.h>

that seems to do the trick. Does this code also work for iOS 8 & 9?

Yes, lines 8-12 for iOS 8 & 9
