iOS Support

[Stoney]

I have an Iphone and a Developer Account! If you want, I cant test it on real device to you!

Same here. I have an iPod Touch 4th Gen (Retina Display).
Btw: You should check if it works with XCode 4. Apple made some major changes with the new XCode version and a lot of things broke in the process.

Reading mac-pascal mail list I found that there is no support for it with FreePascal...

XCode 4 works with FreePascal 2.5.1, see: http://web.me.com/macpgmr/ObjP/Xcode4/ObjP_Part1.html

Hm, interesting

So, can anybody sign&test for me this executable via codesign as described here? It was built with iPhone SDK 4.2, zlib for ARMv6, but I don't know for which ARM is configured gcc toolchain.

Apple really does not make the things easy. I am not able to sign your application. The command line instructions really does not help much! =(

I have some work to do now, but I will take a look on it again later!

You know what, I've actually went out to the book store to pick-up a couple of books on the subject (teaching Objective-C as it be) and they actually have some good information about using Xcode and getting your Apps setup on a real piece of hardware and even the whole submission process getting it onto the App Store. It might not hurt to check out some of these books.

I have...

• iPhone & iPad Game Development for Dummies
• Beginning Mac Programming (Develop with Objective-C and Cocoa)

I also was looking at...

iPad Programming
Head First iPhone and iPad Development

The Objective-C stuff might not be as useful to us, but all the other Xcode and Apple Developer stuff might come in handy to learn from a book.

Well.... It works!! =)... It's signed and running on my Iphone! 60 fps!

The command to sign is really simple :

codesign -s Developer demo01.app/demo01
