Many .NET developers and many enterprises would like to target the iPhone for business application development, yet the learning curve and cost of moving to Objective-C precludes the practicality of this in many cases. MonoTouch brings the best of CocoaTouch and .NET under a single, extensible technology, providing the only way to develop iPhone applications using .NET that can be published to the iPhone App Store.
Learning MonoTouch begins with the basics of building applications for the iPhone under MonoTouch. It assumes the reader is familiar with C# and .NET at least on an intermediate level and will focus on making use of existing skills while presenting in detail iPhone-specific information. Initial chapters will have simple examples to get the reader up and running and lay the groundwork for more complex samples and chapters presented later in the book. After the basics are covered, the book quickly moves into more complex examples using a practical application that addresses common use cases encountered in enterprise application projects.
Learning MonoTouch is for .NET/C# developers with several years of application development experience, but little to no iPhone or Mac development experience. This book teaches C#/.NET developers how to take their existing skills to the iPhone and shows them everything they need to know to build an enterprise class application using MonoTouch. The book assumes intermediate-level knowledge of C#/.NET. Some familiarity with n-tier application development will be helpful, but the book will include some primers in areas such as web services or database development where appropriate.
Develop State-of-the-Art iPhone/iPad Apps with MonoTouch and .NET! Are you an experienced C#/.NET developer who wants to reach the huge iPhone/iPad market? Now, you can create great iOS apps without first mastering Objective-C and Apple's development toolset. With MonoTouch, you can leverage the skills you already have to create powerful apps that can be sold in Apple's App Store or deployed throughout your organization. In Learning MonoTouch, Michael Bluestein helps you get started with MonoTouch fast and make the most of its remarkably robust capabilities. The book first walks you through setting up your MonoTouch development environment, explaining how MonoTouch abstracts the iOS SDK to permit development against native iOS classes from C#. Through simple examples, you'll start building working apps, establishing a firm foundation for more advanced coding. One step at a time, you'll master increasingly sophisticated cases through practical examples. Bluestein even shows you how to leverage powerful .NET tools in your iOS apps, including LINQ. Coverage includes * Applying common iOS development patterns and techniques in C# * Using MonoTouch to handle memory management and garbage collection * Structuring MonoTouch apps for the MVC design pattern * Making the most of iOS user interface classes * Leveraging the address book, camera access, email, and iOS media features * Customizing tables and navigation for richer experiences and better performance * Accessing the iOS Core Graphics and Core Animation subsystems * Building iOS location-based applications with Core Location and MapKit * Consuming web services from MonoTouch * Integrating iOS and .NET networking capabilities * Saving data with the ADO.NET provider to SQLite, .NET serialization, and NSUserDefaults All code samples are available for download at github.com/mikebluestein.
