Objective-C windows Development Environment setup

In the past two days, I want to see how the legendary iPhone application is made.

Taking this idea as a preliminary attempt, the first problem encountered was the establishment of the Development Environment on Windows. After all, it was just fun to buy a Mac and it was too impulsive. After all, there was already a local database, I still don't know how long the heat will last.

 

The establishment of Windows-based objective-C development and running environment can use a series of components provided by gunstep.

Four software packages are mainly used:

Gnustep msys System

Gnustep Core

Gnustep devel

Cairo backend

Gunstep official website http://wwwmain.gnustep.org/experience/Windows.html

The installation sequence is also as follows. To separate it from OS, I installed the gunstep package to D:/gnustep.

 

Then we can write a hello World program to test whether helloworld. m is set up in the environment.

# Include <stdio. h> <br/> int main (void) <br/>{< br/> printf ("Hello world! "); <Br/> return 0; <br/>}< br/>

 

Below we compile and run helloworld. m respectively (save path D:/iworkspace)

Compile

1. Choose Start> All Programs> gunstep> shell to pop up mingw32 :~ Window

In this shell, general Linux commands should be supported. I tried a few commands, which are easy to use.

$ Pwd

/Home/Administrator: the installation directory D:/gnustep/home/Administrator

 

2. Go to the directory of our helloworld. M file.

$ Cd d:/iworkspace

$ Ls

Helloworld. m

 

3. Enter the GCC command to compile the code.

$ Gcc-O helloworld. m

PS: The-O parameter is used to specify the name of the program to be generated.

 

$ Ls

Helloworld.exe helloworld. m

Helloworld.exe is the compiled executable file.

 

Run

Helloworld.exe is also executed in the shellwindow

$./Helloworld

Hello world!

So far, our initial goal has been completed and the environment has been set up successfully.
