This article explains how to build a tool chain for iPhone OS 2.0.

'''Please note that this section is under development.'''

__TOC__

== Mac OS X ==
For Mac OS X you can just use the iPhone OS 2.0 SDK from Apple which you can download after registration from [http://developer.apple.com/iphone/index.action Apple iPhone Dev Center].

== Windows XP ==

=== Extraction of iPhone OS 2.0 SDK ===
* Download the iPhone OS 2.0 SDK from [http://developer.apple.com/iphone/index.action Apple iPhone Dev Center].
* Download and install ''HFSExplorer'' from [http://hem.bredband.net/catacombae/hfsx.html catacombae software].
* Start ''HFSExplorer'' and choose the menu ''File→Open UDIF Disk Image (.dmg)...''
* Select the iPhone 2.0 SDK disk image ''iphone_sdk_final.dmg'' and press ''Open''
* When the tool asks ''Which partition to read'' leave it at ''"Mac_OS_X" (Apple_HFS)'' and press ''OK''
* Go to ''Packages'' and select the package you want to extract, e.g. ''iPhoneSDKHeadersAndLibs.pkg'' for the iPhone OS 2.0 header files.
* With right mouse button choose ''Extract data'' to extract an installation package.

== Linux ==
Currently we can only describe how to get the headers from the iPhone OS 2.0 SDK.

=== Extraction of iPhone OS 2.0 Installation Packages (.pkg) ===
* Extract ''iPhoneSDKHeadersAndLibs.pkg'' from iPhone OS 2.0 SDK as described in section ''[[#Extraction of iPhone OS 2.0 SDK|Extraction of iPhone OS 2.0 SDK]]'' under Windows XP.
* Use the ''eXtensible ARchiver'' ''xar'' to extract the file ''Payload'' file containing the actual header files:
xar -xf iPhoneSDKHeadersAndLibs.pkg Payload
* Rename the ''Payload'' file since it is gzipped:
mv Payload Payload.gz
* Uncompress the ''Payload.gz'' file:
gunzip Payload.gz
* Extract the contents of the resulting ''Payload'' file:
cat Payload | cpio -i
or
cat Payload | cpio -i -d '*.h'
to extract only all header files included in the package.

=== Framework Headers ===
This section assumes that
cat Payload | cpio -i -d '*.h'
got used in previous section.

If you want to move all Framework headers into an ''include'' directory continue
as follows:

* Remove the project XCode templates since they will not be required anymore:
rm -rf Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library

* Create your target ''include'' directory:
mkdir include

* Get just the ''System'' and ''usr'' directories from the iPhone Os 2.0 SDK and remove the empty ''Platforms'' directory hierarchy:
mv Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS2.0.sdk/* .
rmdir -p Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS2.0.sdk/

* Move the Framework headers to current directory and clean-up empty directory hierarchy:
mv System/Library/Frameworks/* .
rmdir -p System/Library/Frameworks/

* Rename/move all Framework header directories into ''include'' directory and cleanup
mv AddressBook.framework/Headers include/AddressBook
mv AddressBookUI.framework/Headers include/AddressBookUI
mv AudioToolbox.framework/Headers include/AudioToolbox
mv AudioUnit.framework/Headers include/AudioUnit
mv CFNetwork.framework/Headers include/CFNetwork
mv CoreAudio.framework/Headers include/CoreAudio
mv CoreFoundation.framework/Headers include/CoreFoundation
mv CoreGraphics.framework/Headers include/CoreGraphics
mv CoreLocation.framework/Headers include/CoreLocation
mv Foundation.framework/Headers include/Foundation
mv MediaPlayer.framework/Headers include/MediaPlayer
mv OpenAL.framework/Headers include/OpenAL
mv OpenGLES.framework/Headers include/OpenGLES
mv QuartzCore.framework/Headers include/QuartzCore
mv Security.framework/Headers include/Security
mv SystemConfiguration.framework/Headers include/SystemConfiguration
mv UIKit.framework/Headers include/UIKit
rmdir -p *.framework

* The remaining directories are ''include'' with all Framework headers and ''usr'' with all system related headers.

* You may still remove the ''Payload'' file since we don't need it anymore:
rm Payload

* You are done.

== iPhone/iPod Touch ==
There is a tool chain available after jailbreak from the [[Cydia|Cydia installer]]. You just need to install
the '''iPhone 2.0 Toolchain''' from Cydia to get a 1.1.x based development environment on your iPhone
or iPod Touch. The maintainer of this package - BigBoss - has some comments on this Toolchain on his
webpage ''[http://thebigboss.org/moreinfo/Toolchain2.php Toolchain 2.0]''.

If you want to use the header files from iPhone OS 2.0, you can obtain them from the
iPhone OS 2.0 SDK as described in section ''[[#Framework Headers|Framework Headers]]''.

Cydia is an open source application installer created by saurik that uses the debian-APT system for package management.
As of July 29, 2009, it is the only application that can install third party apps on the iphone/ipod touch 2.0 firmware.
