Objective-C and C code can be freely mixed. I have already done it in Mac OSX and in the iphone. I manage Cocoa from OSX using Harbour and also used the GUI from Harbour in the iphone. So I guess I may be able to use the ipad GUI from Harbour too. Next step (just for fun) :-) But due to recent (and very much commented) Apple modifications to its licence, it is not allowed to use any code "translator". They only allow to use their development tools. So we can't use Harbour to build "offcial" applications. This can only be used for private and personal use (I guess). Anyhow it seems as both in USA and Europe, legal investigation has started to proceed against Apple for monopolistic practices regarding this issue, but it will require a long time before this could force Apple to modify its licence (Novell, Adobe, and many others (us too) are very much affected cause this Apple licence change). http://www.zdnet.com/blog/burnette/apples-new-iphone-restrictions-and-the-5-stages-of-grief/1904 best regards, Antonio _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list (attachment size limit: 40KB) Harbour@harbour-project.org http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
