This code is used to create a countdown timer.

Code for .h file.

@interface UIMyContoller : UIViewController {  NSTimer *timer;     IBOutlet UILabel *myCounterLabel; }  @property (nonatomic, retain) UILabel *myCounterLabel;  -(void)updateCounter:(NSTimer *)theTimer; -(void)countdownTimer;  @end 

Code for .m file.

@implementation UIMyController @synthesize myCounterLabel;  int hours, minutes, seconds; int secondsLeft;  - (void)viewDidLoad {     [super viewDidLoad];      secondsLeft = 16925;     [self countdownTimer]; }  - (void)updateCounter:(NSTimer *)theTimer {     if(secondsLeft > 0 ) {         secondsLeft -- ;         hours = secondsLeft / 3600;         minutes = (secondsLeft % 3600) / 60;         seconds = (secondsLeft %3600) % 60;         myCounterLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%02d:%02d:%02d", hours, minutes, seconds];     } else {         secondsLeft = 16925;     } }  -(void)countdownTimer {      secondsLeft = hours = minutes = seconds = 0;     if([timer isValid]) {         [timer release];     }     NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];       timer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.0f target:self selector:@selector(updateCounter:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];     [pool release]; } 

Hope this helps you out.
