La doar o ora dupa lansarea iOS 6.0.1 pentru posesorii de iDevice-uri, iata ca acum Apple a lansat iOS 6.1 beta pentru aceleasi terminale. Doar dezvoltatorii de aplicatii pentru iOS pot descarca si utiliza aceasta versiune beta a iOS, Apple specificand deocamdata implementarea unui modul Map Kit pentru iOS 6 Maps. Aceasta vesiune a iOS ar urma sa ajunga in iTunes anul viitor, iar pana atunci Apple va implementa multe noutati in ea.
The Map Kit framework now lets you programmatically search for map-based addresses and points of interest. The
MKLocalSearch
class initiates a search for map-based content using a natural language string. In other words, you can enter placename information or portions of an address and have Map Kit return search results that match the information you provide. For example, searching for the string “coffee” would return the location of local coffee bars along with information about each one.
