Chilkat v10.0.0 is able to create digital signatures for PDF, XmlDSig (XAdES), CAdES, S/MIME, etc. using the HSM (USB token or smartcard) connected to an iPhone. It’s just a matter of calling the certificate object’s LoadFromSmartcard function. You’ll also need to add the “com.apple.token” entitlement to your application. Here are some examples: Objective-C Sign PDF using USB Token or Smartcard […]

There is often alarm at the size of the Chilkat static libraries (.a) for iOS. This should not be of too much concern, because after building your app in Release mode, your app’s executable will NOT grow by the size of the static library. It will only grow by a very small fraction of the total size of the .a […]
The Chilkat Objective-C / C++ libs are now available for iOS 6.0. This supports the iPhone5 w/ both armv7 and armv7s. See Chilkat iOS library downloads
Regarding Objective-C programming for MAC OS X and IOS: (from https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/MemoryMgmt/Articles/mmAutoreleasePools.html ) Cocoa always expects there to be an autorelease pool available. If a pool is not available, autoreleased objects do not get released and your application leaks memory. If you send an autorelease message when a pool is not available, Cocoa logs a suitable error message. The AppKit and […]
Question: Will using Chilkat (for IOS) prevent my app from being accepted into the Apple App Store?

If linking produces undefined symbols involving the following: __ZTVN10__cxxabiv121__vmi_class_type_infoE __Znwm __ZdlPv ___gxx_personality_sj0 ___cxa_begin_catch __ZTVN10__cxxabiv120__si_class_type_infoE ___cxa_end_catch __ZdaPv __ZTVN10__cxxabiv117__class_type_infoE etc. It means you’re NOT linking with the C++ runtime libs. To link with the C++ runtime libs, include an empty source file having a file extension of “.cpp”. For more information, see the IOS Objective-C linking notes
The Chilkat IOS library download provides separate static libs for the device and simulator. The universal lib is not included because (1) it is easy to create from the individual libs, and (2) it reduces the size of the download. To create a single IOS Chilkat universal lib, run the following libtool command from the root of the Chilkat directory […]
The Chilkat Zip methods for writing a .zip will first write the zip to a temp file in the directory specified by the Zip.TempDir property, and then if successful, moved/renamed to the actual output file. The default value for zip.TempDir is “.” (the current working directory) and this is often a directory where it is not possible to create files. […]
