C# for the iPhone

Awesome post from an Aussie no less which is a non-trivial iPhone application using c# on monotouch.

The thing I love about monotouch is that it lets me leverage my .Net Skills (not just c#, but how the .Net run time works) and marries it to the low-level iPhone development infrastructure. The hardest part about getting into iPhone development for me was Objective-C, and now I don’t need to go there.

Points to note:

  • Obviously since interpretation is not allowed on the iPhone the guys at the mono project had to put together monotouch, which statically links the parts of the .net framework needed into each iPhone app.
  • Monotouch is a payed for product.

  • Hey you’ve broken something because none of the link in the article body are clickable. The left hand nav bar is fine, just the body is broken.

  • Seemed to be some rogue float:left’s that shouldn’t have affected anything like linking capabilities. I pulled them out now and seems like all is good.
