Before you can start doing anything, you must first create an Xcode project.
To create an xCode projectLaunch Xcode.
Under the File menu, choose New Project...
Choose iPhone OS Application from the left-hand side selection.
Choose a Navigation-based Application, leaving the Use Core Data for Storage. option unchecked.
Click the Choose... button and save the project names in the location of your choice.
The Navigation-based project automatically creates an application with a UITableViewController inside of a UINavigationController, as well as a UIApplicationDelegate which places the controllers in the window when the application is launched. So far, the application only has an empty navigation bar at the top, and an empty table view. To fill the table with names, the application will request the data from an UltraLite database on the device.
Setting up the project for an UltraLite library. To set up the project for the UltraLite libraryIn order to use the UltraLite library you must configure the Xcode project.
Control-click the names project on the left-hand side of the project window and select Get Info.
Under the Build tab of the Info window, search for the User Header Search Paths setting using the search field and double-click the setting.
In the Finder, navigate to the SQL Anywhere sdk folder.
Click and drag the Include folder into the modal window that opened when you double-clicked the setting in the info window.
Click OK.
Setting up the UltraLite preprocessor macroThe UltraLite headers can now be used in this project. However, the library requires that the UNDER_IPHONE preprocessor macro be defined to function correctly. On some versions of the SDK the GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS is already defined. If this is the case, simply set its value to UNDER_IPHONE.
Otherwise, to create it:
To set the UltraLite preprocessor macroClick the cog button in the bottom-left corner of the project info window and select Add User-Defined Setting.
Name the new setting GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS and set the value to UNDER_IPHONE.
Compiling the project as C++This tutorial uses the UltraLite C++ API. In order to eliminate the need to cast to C types, compile the source as C++:
To compile the project as C++In the Search in Build Settings box, enter Compile Sources As.
Choose Objective-C++ from the options in the Value field.
On some older versions of Xcode, this setting is only visible if a device target is selected for this project.
Close the project info window.
Adding the UltraLite library to the projectThe only step left to be able to use UltraLite in the application is to add the library itself to the project.
To add the UltraLite library to the project In the Finder, navigate to the libulrt.a library you compiled earlier. It should be located in ultralite/iphone in your SQL Anywhere folder.
Click and drag the libulrt.a library from the Finder onto the Names project in the project window. (The same element you control-clicked to get the project info window.)
You should now have libulrt.a listed in the project files with a little yellow toolbox icon.
Adding frameworks required by UltraLiteUltraLite requires the CFNetwork and Security frameworks in addition to the default frameworks.
To add the frameworks required by UltraLiteControl-click the Frameworks folder under the names project in the project window and select Existing Frameworks from the Add menu.
Browse to the Security framework and choose Add. (/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS3.1.3.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Security.framework) for example.
Choose Reference Type of Relative to Current SDK.
Repeat with the CFNetwork framework.
