ARC Compatibility about timescroller

[chriswill0w]

I got it working on iOS5 :-). My solution:
-First convert the project to ARC: that means basically get rid off all the memory management stuff in the code of the timscroller like releases etc.
-then in the UITableView where you want to use the timescroller use custom cells instead of the standard ones
-in your custom cell class override the following method as follows:

  -(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event{
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] 
postNotificationName:@"touchEventFromCell" object:event];
[super touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event];

}

-in the init method of the timescroller you have to add the following now:

  [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] 
 addObserver:self
 selector:@selector(touchEventFromCell:)
 name:@"touchEventFromCell" 
 object:nil];

-and the following method has to be added to the timescroller class:

   - (void)touchEventFromCell:(NSNotification *)notification {

UIEvent * event = ((UIEvent *) notification.object);
currentEvent = event;
}

-currentevent is a property of timescroller that you can use in the following line of code:

        UIView *view = [_tableView hitTest:point withEvent:currentEvent];

-with the above code you get an event to use for the hittest since UIEventTypeTouches cannot be used with ARC. It is maybe not a nice solution but it works and performance is still the same.
