Hi erica,
I was just wondering how hard is it to port a java app to work on the iphone. One of my mates has written a java program to run on sony ericsson and symbian phones, but i don’t know how you would go about porting it to run on a jailbroken iphone.
Any advice would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Colm.

Unfortunately, Objective C (and some Objective C++) is the language for iPhone development right now.

Hi, Erica,
I’m working on something a little bit similar to what you’re doing, though more tailored to a specific purpose.

I’m not taking no for an answer on this no-attachments stuff, and going to code it for myself, without the private framework. Are you interested in working with me to get it running?

SMTP is a pretty simple protocol, I’m currently running into issues with encryption on my socket, using the AsyncSocket wrapper, tweaked according to: http://deusty.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html.

Here’s to hoping that Apple will just make the API public, for goodness’ sake! I can understand not wanting developers to have access to users email accounts, etc, but still.

Hello

I dont really know if this is the appropriate place, but it seems like a feature for file browser. I also dont know how much thinking has gone into this idea, since the web is fairly limited in terms of shedding light on it. Basically, I was wondering if there is any way to bring printing to the iphone. We all know its not just a phone, so it would be great if PDFs received by mail could be sent to a printer connected to the wireless network. I am not a developer, so I have no clue on the feasibilty of this, but this bloc seems like the only place with the expertise to shed light on this question.

Thanks a lot.

i absolutely loved sendsong purely for the emailing songs (to friends overseas). Id love to see that brought to 2.1 somehow. Is the project still going ahead?

Hi erica, are there any news about sendsong? It was a great app.
Why did you leave cydia?
