how to hide status bar in Iphone application

how to hide status bar .

in sdk 3.1 or lower version it is possible by adding this code in 

- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application{

[application statusBarHidden:TRUE];

}

but in 4.1 this method is not available in delegate class. i can see some site like this 

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:YES animated:YES];

it is also not working. any body know that how it will possible in iPhone sdk 4.1 ?

thanks and regards..

Solution

  • if you are doing it on the applicationDidFinishLaunching: there is an easier way of doing it:

    The easiest way to hide the status bar (and this will work on any version) is to go into you Info.plist; right click to add a row and select Status Bar Initially hidden.

    This will ensure every time you app launches the status bar will be hidden.

    I can post scree shots if you need them, just let me know and hope this helps.
