Dear Matt Cutts,

I read your artical of cross-compiler in your web site.
I am a yeyoul Lee.
I am currently working for samsung electronics.
My major interest is cross-compiler for iphone.
Because I want to transfer iphone application to other phone.
How can I try to it?

Also I am working for development to transfer software which from iphone contract and music, video, photo to other phone.
If you have a good knowledge, please comment to me.

Recently I have a interest of cloud phone which I imagine.
Also unified and shared mobile application store or market.

I think that you have a good knowledge for that.
Please I want to discuss with you.

Thanks

Best Regard
Yeyoul Lee

P.S. please refer to bellow cross-platform approach example

http://www.phonegap.com/about/

Since winning the Web 2.0 Expo LaunchPad competition in April 2009, PhoneGap has been widely recognized as a game-changer for mobile app development. The open source code has been downloaded more than 200,000 times and hundreds of apps built using PhoneGap are available in mobile app stores and directories. In 2009, PhoneGap was named by InfoWorld as a top emerging enterprise technology in the category “cross-platform mobile app development”.

The PhoneGap mission is to Web-enable native device functionality with open standards like HTML, CSS and JavaScript so that you can focus on the app you’re building, not on authoring complex platform compatibility layers.

Hello Matt,

Even though this post is quite old, it has be a valuable resource for my research. I have learned so much about compilers and tool chains. This blog post was the starting point of all of it, so thank you for this post. I have a question that I have been unable to answer. Perhaps you can help me out:

1. Do traces of tool chains and compilers remain in the executable file? For example, if I make my software on Windows for OS-X, can I find out if it was made on Windows just by looking at the executable file? Or even using MacRuby to write an OS-X application, is it possible to know it was made with MacRuby by looking at the executable file?

Thanks again for the wonderful wealth of information. I will continue to refer back to your blog for future research as well. Looking forward to your response.

Sincerely,
Aaron Franco

Technical information like Toolchain, Cross compiler, the connection between cross compiler & iPhone is really helpful to know the basic principle of iPhone operation.

Hi Matt,
although discussing Iphone might seem interesting to a lot of people, i think currently webmasters are shaking in their pants thinking about Pr update, or rather lack of it. Could you write a post about what is going on at Google? Why id the update so late, blah blah, etc.?

Hi All,

May I know from anyone out there… When the Apple iPhone is releasing in India. I would highlight it on my website’s homepage http://www.sendindiagifts.com; Just to make Indians (living outside India)elligible to send iPhones across India to their loved ones.

Please do let me know if anyone knows when its launching in India (GSM)

Just got my Iphone! I could surf the web with Iphone, and even chat with folks over Iphone MSN, but a bit concern about online securities as it doesn’t look like having anti-virus software installed.
