Hello, I am currently trying to use an external library alongside SFML on iOS. Problem is that this library requires adding a few lines to the iOS Application function "didFinishingLaunchingWithOptions". I am plenty capable of modifying SFAppDelegate in order to get the library to work correctly; however, this means I would have to build SFML for each individual project I do, the library I am using makes you add your "Application ID" so I would have to update that line each time I needed to create a new project. I would prefer to not do this, so my question is, is there a way for me to modify SFML didFinishingLaunchingWithOptions without actually modifying the source code of SFML.

i.e. is there anyway to overload that function in the project I am making, or will this cause some hiccups in SFML?

You'll most probably end up in trouble, yes.

But can't you make your library read you app id from a file instead of hardcoding it in the code? That would be much more practical.
