Hi,
I'm developing map iOS app using Arcgis sdk. I googled around with no luck. What I have is tile server which have to call by get method
Host:
https://servername?api=tile
and parameter like:
"x=%@&y=%@&z=%@", x, y, z
to get tile image. and output of api is rawdata of tile image (NSData) what should I do for using Arcgis.
PS. The way I use with MapKit is like this:
[self.map addOverlay:tileOverlay];
but ArcGIS has no overlay? just only addMapLayer? so I google and found keyword like custom layer.
What I have
API URL for get tile.
What I need to do.
1. Create custom layer
2. Get x, y, z to send to api for geting tile.
What server return
An encrypt image rawdata. So I need to decrypt it before using.
Can someone help me out please.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
I found this post
http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/60285-How-do-I-create-a-layer-that-is-generated-from-an-image
my case just kind of this. But I cannot follow what in this post wrote.

thanks Nimesh,
AGS api version 2.0,
ios 4.3
images from web:
NSString* dir = [_allLayersPath stringByAppendingFormat:@"/%@/%@/%@.png",decLevel,hexRow,hexCol];
//NSLog(dir);
_tile.image = [UIImage imageWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:dir]]];
it works well until the exception happen.
I just want sth. like this, ARCGIS 10.1 is still allow sth. like this?

You have 2 choices - you can create a custom dynamic layer (if the image your server provides covers the map's entire viewable extent) or you can create a custom tiled layer (if the image your server provides covers only a portion of the viewable extent, and you need to potentially request multiple tiles for a given extent).
Refer to http://developers.arcgis.com/en/ios/api-reference/category_a_g_s_layer_07_for_subclass_eyes_only_08.html
for more information on how to create custom layers.
You can also refer to thee sample showing how to create a custom tiled layer.
