NSNotification with multithreading XCODE

Question

I am a newbie to IPHONE development. I am facing a issue in working with NSNotification with multithreading.

I have a few images in a gallery.I select the image. Selected images get stored in core data.I have a button (upload). When i click on it i need to show a hud with a NSNotification saying (Uploading with image name). ie. "uploading image1.jpg" then i need to call the next thread to display "uploading image2.jpg" and so on. I need a sample code for this.

I need to know how to send and receive NSNotification with multithreading. Kindly help me in this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Consider using MBProgressHUD for this.

The demo project include examples very similar to what you're doing. The components also has other feature you may want, like a progress indicator.

From the main page, configuring an async task to have a HUD notification is as simple as:

[MBProgressHUD showHUDAddedTo:self.view animated:YES];
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue( DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_LOW, 0), ^{
    // Do something...
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
        [MBProgressHUD hideHUDForView:self.view animated:YES];
    });
});
