Launch GLBasic iPhone App from XCode UI Project

[fjsantosb]

Hi,

I am trying to integrate a GLBasic iPhone App with a XCode UI App.
The objective is to 'launch' an iPhone GLBasic App from an UI XCode Project.

What I have done:

- I create a simple GLBasic Application and compile for iPhone (simple helloworld text on screen).
- I tested (standalone) on iPhone and works.

- I create a simple ui application (a button with text 'launch glbasic app').
- I copy all libraries from GLBasic project to UI project.
- I add other linker flags, etc to get 2 projects exactly the same.

- I add the following code to UI project when press button. (I have defined the two methods and tested that nil arguments works).

-(IBAction) launchGLBasic:(id) sender {
   isIphone();
   GLB_iPhone_call_main(nil, nil);
}

- Applications UI runs pretty well, but when i press the button, application hang up for a second and then crash.

Any clue, I have missed something?

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

please add isIphone(); at program start. change all .m to .mm and try again.

Hi Trucidare,

Thanks so much, i will look forward for your solution

King Regards, fjsantos.

[Kitty Hello]

should I try to detect that and use the other instance instead?

[fjsantosb]

I really don't know what will be the best solution for this.

But your proposal makes sense to me.

With this method, I could regret to main app after 'end' command?

King Regards, fjsantos.

[trucidare]

hmm i think about a simple solution but not sure yet.

[fjsantosb]

That sounds great!

If you need a project for testing (for convenience), don't hesitate to contact me!

Thanks for your help.
