Summary

The iPhone 2.0 beta release includes both the iPhone Software Development

Kit (SDK) as well as new enterprise features such as support for Microsoft

Exchange ActiveSync to provide secure, over-the-air push email, contacts and

calendars as well as remote wipe, and the addition of Cisco IPsec VPN for

encrypted access to private corporate networks. The iPhone SDK provides

developers with a rich set of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and

tools to create innovative applications for iPhone and iPod(R) touch.

In addition to the rich set of iPhone OS APIs, the iPhone SDK also provides

advanced tools for creating native applications including: Xcode(R) for source

code editing, project management and graphical debugging; Interface Builder

with drag and drop interface creation and live preview.

This book provides a bridge for Java developers and shows developers (with or

without Mac programming experience) the skills they need to develop their

own iPhone applications by learning the core principles and techniques needed.

It walks them through creating their first application, examining the Objective-

C language, learning how to use the patterns and idioms of iPhone

development, drawing and animation, location finding and other fun and useful

topics.
