mctube application developer!!!

Dear sir,

I have purchased mctube application from appstore to removed the ads. After a while, the mctube has been removed from the app store then the developer cheats with creating same application but with different name!

 

Is this acceptable?

Bug Reports: What Devs Need To Know

As always, for betas or releases, registered devs should feel free to use Report a Bug for any fixes, samples, doc additions, feature requests or enhancements you'd like to see as well. Provide detailed information for the issue, including the system and developer tools version information, and any relevant crash logs or console messages. Be prepared to submit a sample project that demonstrates the issue(s).

 

• Each top level issue deserves a unique report.

• Posting in the Developer Forums is not reporting. Apple does not read those comments nor harvest information from them, so file bugs if you want to be heard. Add your report # to your thread for reference, thanks.

• When reporting an issue it is helpful to provide console logs, device* logs, and screenshots that illustrate the problem.

* iOS Devs should always collect and send along any/all related device logs when reporting a bug https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/ios/device/  (Download the iPhone Configuration Utlity to capture these logs and/or export them via Xcode/Organizer).

 

 

General notes about bugs:

• Devs should not typically expect followup unless (a) the engineer working on the issue needs more information and reaches out or (b) the/your issue has been fixed and the bug is sent back to you to please verify.

• Don't worry about category too much as the reports are checked when received and routed to the proper Engineering section involved.

• Know that devs can only see their own bugs, not those from other developers. You have access to the status of the bug, not to the bug itself. That is, you can see if it is in Analyze/Verify/Closed, not it's contents.

• For additional info, see Bug Reporting Best Practices.

• Duplicates - Understand that Apple uses 'amount of duplication' in bug reports as a way to gauge the 'severity' of an issue.

• Also note that during betas, bug reporter can be dealing with heavy loads, so be patient.

• Don't forget to go back to your bug report AFTER you submit it and set the RANK. '1' can help get it noticed asap.

 

Reporting Xcode Server Bugs

When reporting an Xcode Server bug, enter the following command in Terminal, then attach the output to the bug report.

     sudo /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/sbin/serverloggather

 

Bug Reporter Connection Issues:

• For problems connecting to the Apple Bug Reporter, let Apple know by submitting your issue via the: Connection Problems Form.

 

 

To report security issues w/Apple products: https://ssl.apple.com/support/security/

Is there a way to hide the source code in an Xcode app?

Whenever I export an Applescript app from Xcode, in the resources folder, there is the unprotected source code. Someone else has changed the source code a bit and has begun distributing my app as his own. Is there anyway to compile or encrypt this code on export?

access photoshop from external program

Hi,

 

I need to control Photoshop from a program written in Cocoa and I am sure there must be some interface for this. In Windows there was something like that for accessing functionality provided by binary applications - it was called OLE and COM.

 

I can't imagine not having this in OS X (it is so good).

 

Thanks,

Juan

Developing Java in Xcode

In a better world, no one would have to use Java anymore. Sadly there are still university programs where people are expected to use Java. Rather than cast people into the world of Eclipse, here are instructions on how to get Xcode building Java. These instructions are current as of Xcode 4.6.2. You will need to download a JDK from somewhere.

 

This is a basic environment meant only for writing simple school programs. It has no debugger. Replace with whatever you want to name your project. Your main project file, main project class, and Xcode project must use this name. Welcome to Java.

 

1) In Xcode, File > New > New Project > Other > External Build System

2) Give it a meaningful name and save it somewhere. Note the name. You'll need that later.

3) File > New > New File > Other > Empty

4) Give it a Java-friendly name. In my example, use .java

5) Copy the contents below into the file and save.

6) File > New > New File > Other > Empty

7) Save as Makefile.

8) Copy the contents below into the file and save.

9) The "Run" (>) button should at least compile your Java now.

 

Now it gets tricky. You don't have to do the next part. You could just open a Terminal to your project directory and run java if you want. I strongly suggest that. You can also just type "make" and use Xcode purely as a text editor.

9) Project > Scheme > Edit Scheme > Debug > Info tab

10) Executable > Other > type ^?g > type /usr/bin > choose java

11) Change Debugger to None

12) Arguments tab

13) For Arguments Passed on Launch, add $(TARGETNAME)

14) For Environment Variables, add CLASSPATH with a value of $(PROJECT_DIR)

15) For Expand Variables based on, use

16) Click the "Run" (>) button.

 

PS: I have no idea how to run the Java debugger in Xcode. But then, I have no idea how to run the Java debugger at all.

 

Here are some starter file contents:

HelloWorld.java:

public class HelloWorld

  {

  public static void main(String[] args)

    {

    System.out.println("Hello, World!");

    }

  }

 

Makefile:

# A simple makefile for a Hello World Java program

 

# Define a makefile variable for the java compiler

JCC = javac

 

# Define a makefile variable for compilation flags

# The -g flag compiles with debugging information

JFLAGS = -g

 

# typing 'make' will invoke the first target entry in the makefile

# (the default one in this case)

default: $(subst .java,.class,$(wildcard *.java))

 

# this target entry builds the Average class

# the Average.class file is dependent on the Average.java file

# and the rule associated with this entry gives the command to create it

#

%.class : %.java

          $(JCC) $(JFLAGS) $<

 

# To start over from scratch, type 'make clean'.

# Removes all .class files, so that the next make rebuilds them

#

clean:

          $(RM) *.class

 

 

NOTE: Those indentations are true tab characters. Ugh!

 

Good luck on your class. Hopefully you can progress onto more complicated projects and eventually use a real language like Objective-C.

Is there a way to get imei number of device using objective c?

I did some searching with Google, and found this thread on Stack Overflow that describes how to do it:


How to get IMEI on iPhone? - Stack Overflow


That thread, in turn, points you to Erica Sadun's site. She's a well-regarded iOS developer and author on iPhone development.


It sounds like it is possible, but only by using a private framework. Thus you can do it, but if you try to submit an app to the store that uses a private framework it will be rejected.


So, for your own private use it's possible.


Is there an officially supported way to get imei?

Re: Is there a way to hide the source code in an Xcode app?

In your project's build settings there is an OSACompile - Build Options section where you can select the option to Save as Execute-Only.  The run-only script isn't encrypted, but I haven't heard of anyone taking the time to decompile one.  Note that even though the script is no longer easily readable, text strings and variable/method names can still be seen.

We are users. This is not Apple speaking here. Apple does not solicit such information.

Xcode Versions ~ #iOS - As of 9.18.13

? 9.18.2013: Xcode 5 is the latest general release for Mountain Lion [specs]:

  • Build #: 5A1413
  • Includes SDKs for OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and iOS 7 (see note below)
  • LLVM compiler builds 64-bit apps for iOS 7
  • Requires 10.8.4 and up
  • Available via the Mac App Store* 1.96 GB

 

Warning: Using the store to install Xcode 5 _will_ remove Xcode 4.6.3, so if you still want to have that version around, copy it to another drive, rename it 'Xcode4.6.3' and unmount that HD (optional) so the installer will ignore it, or if it's too late and 4.6.3 is gone, download it again via *developer.com.

 

 

? The latest Xcode for Snow Leopard is 4.2* and that appears to be the highest it will go. 10.6.8 is required for iOS support.

 

iCloud requires Lion as a minimum.

 

Storyboards are iOS 5 and up only.

 

Retina support for the newer iPads requires the app be built using at least iOS 5.1 SDK.

 

 

Xcode is free. Xcode latest release version is available via the (Mac) App Store on OS X. Some older versions are available to registered developers with an active paid Developer Account via *developer.com.

 

Xcode tools & add-on's: (Graphics Tools, Hardware I/O, Command Line Tools, Dashcode, etc.) Requires paid account and login.

 

I have Xcode 5? Where are the other SDKs?

Xcode's iOS SDK is downwards compatible with a range of previous versions of iOS, but only one SDK is supplied with a particular Xcode version. To support a range of iOSs, set 'Build Settings/iOS Deployment Target' to your choice from the list provided.

 

Can I develop applications for Mac OS X with ARC using Snow Leopard?

No. The Snow Leopard version of Xcode 4.2 doesn’t support ARC at all on Mac OS X, because it doesn’t include the 10.7 SDK. Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard does support ARC for iOS though, and Xcode 4.2 for Lion supports both Mac OS X and iOS. This means you need a Lion system to build an ARC application that runs on Snow Leopard.

 

What about older versions?

 

There is no OS that supports both Xcode 3.x and Xcode 4.3.x. There is no version of the OS that supports both Xcode 4.0.x and 4.3.x. The last OS that supported Xcode 3.x was Snow Leopard, and Xcode 4.3 is only supported on Lion.

 

Technical Support and Learning Resources

Apple offers a number of resources where you can get Xcode development support:

http://developer.apple.com: The Apple Developer website is the best source for up-to-date technical documentation on iOS and OS X.

http://developer.apple.com/xcode: The Xcode home page on the Apple Developer website provides information on the developer tools.

http://devforums.apple.com: The Apple Developer Forums feature a dedicated Developer Forum for Xcode developer previews.

 

Use http://bugreport.apple.com to communicate issues with Apple. Include detailed information of the issue, including the system and developer tools version information, and any relevant crash logs or console messages.

 

Reporting Xcode Server Bugs

When reporting an Xcode Server bug, enter the following command in Terminal, then attach the output to the bug report.

     sudo /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/sbin/serverloggather

How To Change Your Apple ID/Password

Go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and select "Manage your Apple ID". Log in with your Apple ID and password, then select Password and Security from the left column.  Your Apple ID password is used for most everything Apple-related, including your Developer Account, iTunes, the App Store, and this site. An iBook account requires an additional/different login. If you want to change logins for Team Members you can do so via iTunes Connect*.

 

Passwords are case-sensitive. At least one character must be upper case.

 

At some point Apple may force you to change your Apple ID password anyway, but do not do so in response to any unsolicited email by clicking on a link provided within it. Such "phishing" attempts are common. Change it only after attempting to log in here, and your login attempt is blocked due to an expired password or other Apple-imposed requirement.

 

Additional information at: Account Management - iOS Developer Program - Support - Apple & the Apple ID FAQ.

 

And remember, devs should rotate/change their pwds on a routine basis, so take this opportunity to practice safe security.

 

*For iTunes Connect: Log in to iTunes Connect/Manage Users/...and then use 'Edit Profile' for each user and click on 'Change Password'. You will need to know the current password to make changes here.
