When init the NSXLParser as below:
NSXMLParser* xmlParser=[[NSXMLParser alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlstring]];
if the server is down, it will wait for quite some time before the thread returns. It is really annoying even if I exit the application and restart the application, it will continue to wait with a black screen until it times out.
How to I abort the init? Is there a better way to check whether the server is up before calling the parser? Thanks for helping.
