C++, SFML, iOS, help ;)
« on: October 23, 2014, 09:03:23 pm »
I made a small game test using C++ and SFML and it runs perfectly on my Mac (built with xcode 5) and windows partition (visual studio 2012). If I want to port it on iOS (when the future iOS port is released) do I need to learn Objective-C to wrap the code or I don't need any changes?
What alternatives can I use to port my C++ and SFML code on iOS avoiding to learn Objective-C?
If I use QT creator can I develop in C++ and SFML on iOS without using Objective-C?
Lots of doubts, please help! ;)

No you don't. You don't need to change anything.

Glad to know that and thanks for your answer Laurent :)

 When are you guys planning to release the iOS port?

It's in the master branch of the GitHub repository, so you can use it already. A first experimental version will be released with SFML 2.2.

If you want iOS support, just get the latest master.
And no ETA, hopefully soon. ;)
