Tracking The Past
 Steve Jobs started Apple Computers in 1980s.
 John Sculley acquired control – NeXT Computers emerged in 1985
 Closed in 1993, renamed to NeXT Software Inc.
 Brad Cox invented Objective-C in 1983
 Steve Jobs licensed Objective-C in 1998
 Development tools commercial version – NeXTSTEP
 OS and Dev Tools based on UNIX
 Apple acquired NeXTSTEP in 1996 – renamed NeXTSTEP to COCOA.

The Success Song
 Apple produced its first innovation iMAC machine 1998.
 2001 – produced the portable masterpiece iPOD
 June 29, 2007 rocked the mobile market with its Smartphone –
iPhone
 Apple Stores recorded 2,70,000 units sale in two days
 iPhone topped a million units in a month and a half.
 July 11, 2008 Apple released iPhone 3G and its public deployment
of iPhone SDK.
 iPhone SDK and Cocoa downloadable free by developers

iPhone Specifications
Core Specifications: Specs for both the 2007 and 2008 3G release
4.7 or 4.8 ounce computing devices
620 MHz ARM CPU under-clocked to improve battery performance and
reduce heat.
128 MB Dynamic RAM (DRAM)

Development Environment
• Most Object-Oriented Development Environments consist of:
 An Object-oriented Programming Language
• Objective-C
 A library of Objects
• Cocoa Frameworks
 A Suite of Development Tools
• Xcode and Interface Builder
 A Runtime Environment
• Acts as a Kind of Operating system for Objective-C.
• Typically, you don’t need to interact with runtime
• directly

Frameworks
 Frameworks – classes compiled together into a reusable
library of code.
 Built in frameworks - /System/Library/Frameworks
 Cocoa is made up of:
Foundation: Standard values, collection, utility classes.
Strings, dates, lists, threads, timers.
AppKit: User Interface Frameworks. Windows, buttons,
text fields, events, drawing classes
Core Data: Core data is a persistence frameworks. Makes it
easy to save and reload files.

IOS Architecture
iOS can be considered as architected into Layers
 Cocoa Touch at the Developer interface level Abstracts from
the more Core layers

Objective - C
 Objective-C is a superset of C, which enables sophisticated Object oriented
programming mostly based on SmallTalk.
 Designed to give C full OOPS support.
 Objective-C code is compiled by gcc, the GNU C compiler. It enables to
freely mix C, C++ and Objective-C code in a single file.
 Objective-C is the foundation of Cocoa – a whole lot of utility functions.
 Thousands of classes/libraries are wrapped into the Foundation
Frameworks.
 Cocoa also contains interface classes – UIKit and other classes like the
MapKit, Address Book UI all wrapped into Cocoa Touch.

Say “HI” To Objective - C
 #import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
 #import “AppDevegate.h”
 NSLog(@”Getting the first message”);
 The Important typedef
 The Code sense
 Everything is Pointer*
 The iOS Autorelease Pool
