Hi all
I am new to objective C.
I want to make one iPhone application , wherein all UI development is
in objective c and the back end process has to be carried out by a C
library.
I want to know is it possible to port C library to objective - C?
If yes, how do you include these libraries in the project structure?
Kindly help
Thanks.. |

Yes. There's nothing to do. Objective-C is a strict superset of C.

#include <yourlibrary.h> /* exactly like in a C program */

If your library is already compiled to an object file
you may need to link it at compile time as well
gcc <....> -o MyApp mylib.o
to include it in the final executable.
If it is installed in your system you may need to use
gcc <....> -o MyApp -lClib
where the library file is called libClib.so or libClib.a |

For Xcode the better advice is: if your library comes as a .a file
then you can simply add it to your project by dragging the .a and .h
files in your project structure.
