Refresh MKAnnotationView on a MKMapView

Question

I\'d like to a-synchronically load images for my custom MKAnnotationView; I\'m already using the EGOImageView-framework (it goes very well with UITableViews), but I fail to make

Answer 1

This worked for me

#import "EGOImageView.h"

- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)theMapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>)annotation
{
    //ENTER_METHOD;    
    if([annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]]) return nil;  
    MKPinAnnotationView *annView;

    static NSString *reuseIdentifier = @"reusedAnnView";
    annView = [[MKAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:reuseIdentifier];
    annView.canShowCallout = YES;
    annView.calloutOffset = CGPointMake(-5.0f, 0.0f);
    annView.opaque = NO;
    annView.image = [[UIImage imageNamed:@"tempImage.png"] retain];

    YourModel *p = annotation; // make this conform to <MKAnnotation>
    EGOImageView *egoIV = [[EGOImageView alloc] initWithPlaceholderImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"tempImage.png"]];
    [egoIV setDelegate:self];
    egoIV.imageURL = [NSURL URLWithString:p.theUrlToDownloadFrom];
    [annView addSubview:egoIV];
    [egoIV release];


    return [annView autorelease];
}
