Task Flow for Xcode IDE Development

Follow this task flow to develop a device application.

Prerequisites

Before developing a device application, the developer must:

In the Eclipse development environment, create a mobile application project and create mobile business objects as required for your application.
See the following topics in Sybase Unwired WorkSpace – Mobile Business Object Development for instructions on developing mobile business objects, and configuring the mobile business object attributes, as well as synchronization and personalization parameters:
- Sybase Unwired WorkSpace – Mobile Business Object Development > Develop > Developing a Mobile Business Object
- Sybase Unwired WorkSpace – Mobile Business Object Development > Develop > Working with Mobile Business Objects
Note: Ensure that you enter a package name for the mobile application project that is appropriate as a prefix for the mobile business object generated files. In the examples that follow, the package name is SampleApp.
Verify the supported device platforms and code generation tools for your device application. See Planning Your Sybase Unwired Platform Installation > Supported Device Platforms and Databases in the Sybase Unwired Platform Installation Guide

Task

Create mobile business object generated code. See Generating Objective-C Object API Code.
Import libraries and code into the Xcode IDE. See Importing Libraries and Code in the Xcode IDE.
Develop a device application in the Xcode IDE.
1. Create HTML reference information for the methods in your generated code. This will help you to programmatically bind to the Client Object API. See Generating HeaderDoc from Generated Code.
2. Configure your application to synchronize and retrieve data from a mobile business object. See Configuring an Application to Synchronize and Retrieve MBO Data.
3. Reference your application to the Client Object API code that you generated for your mobile application project. See Referencing the iOS Client Object API.
Prepare your applications for deployment to the enterprise. See Preparing Applications for Deployment to the Enterprise.
