Ok so my question is obviously about the reachability class. I'm using it in an ipad app but a constant connection isn't actually required, just occasional xml sent to a server. What I'm noticing is that the little network indicator in the top left is eternally spinning. Is reachability causing it? My appDelegate class is listening for the connection, but I'm worried about additional battery usage. Any thoughts?
didfinishlaunchingwithoptions {
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(checkNetworkStatus:) name:kReachabilityChangedNotification object:nil];
hostReachable = [Reachability reachabilityWithHostName: @"www.apple.com"];
[hostReachable startNotifier];
}
