Die ‚Ein-Klick‘-Toolchain
Toolchain is the name of the compiler used for all the apps you see today for the iPhone [via Installer]. Historically, it has been very difficult to setup and get working often requiring several days of work. iPhone developer Saurik has created a version of the toolchain that runs directly on the iPhone. I have taken his toolchain which consists of his ported GCC and odcctools, and added my headers from the Cygwin toolchain that I use to compile my apps. Together, this brings you a one-click compilation environment that runs directly from the iPhone!
Here are the steps to install and start compiling your apps:
- Install Cydia
- Install “iPhone 1.1.1 Headers”
- Copy your apps source code to /tmp or such with ssh and type “make”
