Re: [xmlvm-users] Help needed: problems getting started with android-on-iphone

[<Zor...@gm...>]

Arno,

thanks a lot! Now, that helped a little bit already: knowing that opening the project in Xcode directly, without doing the steps mentioned in the documentation is good!

Sadly, the result I get is identical to what I got when running "make" yesterday: the application starts (within the iPhone simulator), but closes immediately before displaying anything. I assume this is the behavior of a crashing application...?

Now, in your talk you mention that whenever something goes wrong with a cross-compiled application after successfull cross-compilation, it must be a bug in xmlvm, not generating the correct code. But could it be that a simple app SayHello cannot be correctly ported?

I did not want to go into tracing the resulting Xcode program and as I am not familiar with ObjC (yet) that does not sound like a good option.

I checked out the trunk of xmlvm's svn repository - is that correct? Or is that a not-so-stable version?

Thanks so far!!! Helped a little bit already! :-)
Regards,
Olaf
