## Update ##

On March 31, 2011, Twitter [removed][5] the UIDickBar from their iPhone client version 3.3.3.

Problems underlying the UIDickBar are analyzed and concluded here: [**Problems and the Solution for UIDickBar**](http://digdog.tumblr.com/post/3729884380/problems-and-the-solution-for-uidickbar), read it if you're interested.

## Requirement ##

1. iOS 4.0 or later (Sample project was created from Xcode 4 GM 2)

2. Use LLVM Clang 2.0 compiler

## Usage ##

You simply init UIDickBar with title, badge and an action block:

    UIDickBar *dickBar = [[UIDickBar alloc] initWithDickTitle:@"#DickBar" dickBadge:@"Stupid" actionBlock:^{

        // Anything you want to do after UIDickBar tapped

        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://digdog.tumblr.com"]];

    }];

    [dickBar showInView:self.view];

    [dickBar release];

    

Then you call -showInView: to display UIDickBar that originates from the specified view.

## Features ##

1. Look like real [#dickbar][1].

2. No fancy animations.

3. Support rotation.

4. Support Blocks.

5. Use UIDickBar to get tons of one star reviews, priceless.
