[Estimated Reading Time: < 1 minute] Marc Hoffman of RemObjects blogged over the weekend about the forthcoming iOS 7 and arm64 support in Oxygene. Actually, the only part that is really “coming” is the arm64 aspect since, as he explains in the blog post, Oxygene has always been able to use the iOS 7 SDK betas from the first day they started arriving in Apple Developer previews.
[Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes] There seems to be a perception among some people that Delphi is in the unique position of allowing developers to share and re-use code across the various platforms that it’s compiler can now (and will soon) target. But this is not the case. Oxygene has had this capability right from the start.
[Estimated Reading Time: 2 minutes] I closed my previous post with an observation that the code for initialising an iOS user interface programmatically, as translated from equivalent Objective-C, contained a potential gotcha. I now have a little more time to expand on that.
[Estimated Reading Time: 6 minutes] When XE4 came out and the full extent of the bait and switch perpetrated by Embarcadero became clear, I decided that my money was better spent with RemObjects and their Oxygene product. But it has only been this past weekend that I finally found some “quality time” to spend with it.
