iOS on windows

[dri123]

I have looked through all the forums and still cannot find an explanation for this. I do have experience with SFML and c++ but no experience with cmake,  OS X etc. There is a detailed explanation for android but not iOS?

I have installed cmake and looked at the cmake-gui but cannot find the Xcode generator on there? not sure if this is because I am running windows but yeah this was the first hurdle. I have looked all over the main topics but cannot find anything. Sorry if I missed anything on the forum but have looked around it :/

 I checked through all of this thread: http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=13716.240
but the majority of it seems to be android and there is nothing about building/compiling for iOS for windows?

Just looking for a push in the right direction :/
Thanks

Apple doesn't allow development of iOS stuff other OS than OS X.

Well you can get around it with virtual machines if you are in the mood for making them mad but it's cheaper to just buy one of their laptops and call it a day.

A Mac mini is probably the cheapest option.

Yep or buy used apple's pc.

Apart from that likely diving into hackint0sh territory, don't you also need a really expensive developer license also?

The Apple developer license is 99$ / year. If you don't want to pay for it, you can develop with the device simulator, or jailbreak your phone and crack your Xcode project.
