Building the iOS VM

Building the iOS VM
 
|
I am trying to build the VM for iOS. Got the sources from the ci jenkins server (the ones that built last month, as the current one is red). /platforms has something looking like it. (iOS)
But cog is x86 and iOS is ARM7. So, I guess that I have to build a StackVM for it to work. But there is nothing about iOS in the instructions (Part1, Part2, ...)
The MacOSX VM is documented but not the iOS version. As maintenance was taken over from John, how do we build from here?
My setup: OSX Lion, latest XCode upgraded from Snow Leopard, so I do have GCC on it as well (as LLVM doesn't work). Target devices: iPad 2 3G, iPad 2 Wifi, iPhone 3GS (All with iOS 5.1).
My wife is a math teacher and my point with all this is to have a working VM running Dr Geo II. I am currently having fun with Arduino and would like to bridge it with the iPad through the web (using an Ethernet Shield on the Arduino) - the whole chain running Pharo inside self build VMs.
The ultimate point is to run a summer camp with kids if I can put everything together by then. Thanks in advance, Philippe

Currently, I am writing code targetting iOS for an educational game (but no Smalltalk in there) That may change. The main issue is that what I want is an Xcode projet that is clean. This is doable, the current Xcode project in the source tree is crappy with locations not well defined etc. Fixable. But I need to know what to do first.
Hilaire told me to look here. I've got an Arduino Uno. In fact, I did a number of ISA (! old) cards, and interfaces, like oscilloscope board, ... I can hook that back to the Arduino and then in turn make some Pharo classes (maybe with FFI - I know some people did stuff but not on OSX) to take the data in. The fun part would be the visualization of an iPad remotely.
I saw something in Ghent (I am from Belgium). I'll try to go. Then in Lille, there is also something. I'll go as well. Depends in fact on how well I recover from my current eye surgery. I am locked in my home/office for 4 weeks due to retinal detachment :-( - Things should be okay by then.
For the record, I am a civil engineer and am self employed since 2000. http//philippeback.eu Philippe

Hello,
I have spent a fair chunk of my day grinding my teeth at getting this working in Xcode 4.3
Not there yet. I am better at Cmake, Xcode 4.3, iOS5.1 SDK and GenerateSources for sure... The Xcode project gets generated but Xcode doesn't agrees with me opening it.
Key findings: * all pathes are different with Xcode 4.3 - there is a patch for Cmake to deal with this, I applied it into my macports install. * several frameworks are not findable as expressed in the cmake config (CoreGraphics, UIKit, ..)
* there was a bug in the image, where sqTouch.m is involved. The correct thing is IOSPlugin and not touchplugin as mentioned * a lot of pathes are hardcoded in the image and it for sure doesn't help with the relocation of stuff by Apple
It would be great to be able to discuss this in an IM session one of these days. The answer is not far. Attached the cmake stuff from the main dir (there are things in all plugins but they all come from generate sources initially).
Kind Regards, Philippe
