IOS device device token

Question

I use Monotouch for mac and followed the steps to get a provisioning profile certificate that allows push notification in the process. I have a working application, and now I'm experimenting with apns-sharp and moon-apns, but I can’t figure out how to get the token of my device . I hope someone can provide me with detailed and simple steps to achieve this.

In your FinishedLaunching method, register the application for remote notifications through the UIApplication object that you get in it:

 // Pass the UIRemoteNotificationType combinations you want app.RegisterForRemoteNotificationTypes(UIRemoteNotificationType.Alert | UIRemoteNotificationType.Sound); 

Then, in the AppDelegate class AppDelegate override the RegisteredForRemoteNotifications method:

 public override void RegisteredForRemoteNotifications (UIApplication application, NSData deviceToken) { // The device token byte[] token = deviceToken.ToArray(); } 

You must also override the FailedToRegisterForRemoteNotifications method to handle the error, if any:

 public override void FailedToRegisterForRemoteNotifications (UIApplication application, NSError error) { // Do something with the error }
