    Please tell me what are the minor changes? What changes I have to apply and where? I'll be very thankful to you!!!
  • AN

    Ajit Negi9y agoPosted Feb 27, 2017, 8:10 AM

    Thanx a lot for your response. But, In this scenario, we are still sending one by one. Means we have to apply for loop over the device IDs, and send to each device one by one. But my requirement is to send notification to all the devices in One Go. For Example, In case of GCM, it provides a facility to send in bulk by creating DeviceIDs array and set this array to registration_ids parameter of GCM Payload. We don't have to apply for loop over device Ids. I hope you got my point.

    Pradip Pandey9y agoPosted Feb 27, 2017, 6:50 AM

    Get all the device Ids in comma separated values in a variable. Run a loop and sent the push notification to all the devices.

  Hi, My apple developers team has provided me .pem & .cer file but when asked about password, they told that its empty. When i tried to convert .pem to .pfx, it is asking for password which i cannot pass as empty. So what is the alternative if i password is empty?
  • 

    Pradip Pandey9y agoPosted Nov 25, 2016, 6:38 AM

    Usually, the certificate created by iOS must have a password for security reason and it is mandatory for conversion as well. So, get the new certificate with password.

  Hello Pradip, I am using this code for sending push notification. I am getting ?????????? for non English languages. For this i changed memoryStream.Write(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(payload.PayloadId.ToString()), 0, payload.PayloadId.ToString().Length); from ASCII to UTF8. But still getting ????????. Can you please suggest where to change the code.

    hussain baig10y agoPosted Dec 8, 2015, 1:44 AM

    Modified GeneratePayload method. Now i am able to send push notifications in any non english language. Cod as follows. private static byte[] GeneratePayload(NotificationPayload payload) { try { //convert Devide token to HEX value. byte[] deviceToken = new byte[payload.DeviceToken.Length / 2]; for (int i = 0; i < deviceToken.Length; i++) deviceToken[i] = byte.Parse(payload.DeviceToken.Substring(i * 2, 2), System.Globalization.NumberStyles.HexNumber); var memoryStream = new MemoryStream(); BinaryWriter writer = new BinaryWriter(memoryStream); writer.Write((byte)0); //The command writer.Write((byte)0); //The first byte of the deviceId length (big-endian first byte) writer.Write((byte)32); //The deviceId length (big-endian second byte) writer.Write(deviceToken); writer.Write((byte)0); //First byte of payload length; (big-endian first byte) byte[] b1 = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(payload.ToJson()); writer.Write((byte)b1.Length); writer.Write(b1); writer.Flush(); byte[] array = memoryStream.ToArray(); // Command memoryStream.WriteByte(1); // Changed command Type //Adding ID to Payload memoryStream.Write(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(payload.PayloadId.ToString()), 0, payload.PayloadId.ToString().Length); //Adding ExpiryDate to Payload int epoch = (int) (DateTime.UtcNow.AddMinutes(300) - new DateTime(1970, 1, 1)).TotalSeconds; byte[] timeStamp = BitConverter.GetBytes(epoch); memoryStream.Write(timeStamp, 0, timeStamp.Length); byte[] tokenLength = BitConverter.GetBytes((Int16) 32); Array.Reverse(tokenLength); // device token length memoryStream.Write(tokenLength, 0, 2); // Token memoryStream.Write(deviceToken, 0, 32); // String length string apnMessage = payload.ToJson(); Logger.Info("Payload generated for " + payload.DeviceToken + " : " + apnMessage); byte[] apnMessageLength = BitConverter.GetBytes((Int16)apnMessage.Length); Array.Reverse(apnMessageLength); // message length memoryStream.Write(apnMessageLength, 0, 2); // Write the message memoryStream.Write(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(apnMessage), 0, apnMessage.Length); return array; } catch (Exception ex) { Logger.Error("Unable to generate payload - " + ex.Message); return null; } }

    This error is generated by the Apple Push Channel so change this stream.AuthenticateAsClient(this.appleSettings.Host, this.certificates, System.Security.Authentication.SslProtocols.Ssl3, false); to stream.AuthenticateAsClient(this.appleSettings.Host, this.certificates, System.Security.Authentication.SslProtocols.Tls, false); in the push notification library class.

    In the method PushNotificationToApple, strDeviceToken and strPushMessage are statically defined. Messages is a class in which these can be defined to get the value through object.
