NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest not blocking

Question

I'm calling NSURLConnection -sendSynchronousRequest in NSOperation, but the method returns immediately. I would expect it to block the operation until all data is received. Is this a misunderstanding on my part?

Answer 1

set the delegate of the NSURLConnection object to self

NSURLConnection *theConnection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:theRequest delegate:self];

and then implement the connectionDidFinishLoading methode

-(void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection{
//your code
}
