DragonFireSDK is a Windows iOS
development kit created by Texas-based technology startup Zimusoft. The SDK is
so far the only way to do iPhone
and iPad
development on Windows for the entire development and distribution process. It
allows developers to use C and C++ to develop applications using Visual Studio
or Visual Studio Express. Zimusof is responsible for packaging applications and
handling developer submissions to Apple's App Store on behalf of its customers.
Developers submit their apps to Zimusoft after development and testing on their
own Windows PCs. Pricing for DragonFireSDK is $49.

What's
New in DragonFireSDK 2.0?
1. Containers
DragonFireSDK adds container support.
This means that you can group your views as well as other containers (and
containers within containers, and so on...) together and treat these groups as
single entities.
Box2D is included in the
"box" with DragonFireSDK. This will make it possible to create
an app like the blowout hit Angry Birds with DragonFireSDK.
3. SQLite Support
DragonFireSDK now supports creating
and interacting with SQLite databases. This powerful new feature will
allow you to have local databases in your apps that you can query to your
heart's content!
4. Multi-touch
DragonFireSDK now supports multi-touch.
Your previous DragonFireSDK code base is already compatible with this
feature. There's no need to change a thing - simply recompile on
DragonFireSDK 2.0 and your app will have multi-touch enabled!
5. Game Center Support
DragonFireSDK now supports Game Center
Leaderboards and Achievements. Just set up your leaderboards and
achievements in iTunes Connect and it's a snap to update these in your
DragonFireSDK apps!
6. In-App Purchase
DragonFireSDK now supports the
"built-in" model of In-App Purchase. It's super easy to add a
store to your app for unlocking content or removing ads, or anything else you
might think of. All you need to do is set up your store in iTunes Connect
and it's a breeze to add a store to your existing apps!
7. Camera / Photo Album Support
DragonFireSDK will now allow you to
use the device's camera or photo album and save photos from each one to your
app's Documents folder!
8. Multi-line Edit
DragonFireSDK now supports multi-line
editing as well as static text. Get ready to write those novels!
9. Load
Assets from Documents
DragonFireSDK now allows
you to load assets (images, sounds, and MP3 files) from the Documents folder.
This means that if you save a photo to Documents, now you can load it
into a view in your app. You could also use NetSend() to create files in
Documents to add more assets to your apps!
