First iPhone app

I’ve been looking at the iPhone SDK recently and flicking through the pretty cool Stanford iPhone Programming course, so I (sorta) did the 2nd assignment tonight. What fun.

Not too shabby for 2 hours work. I’m also a bit happier with Objective C and Cocoa now - I was dreading them because of how arcane Objective C looks, but it seems decent enough, weird syntax aside.

I’m really not overly enamoured with xcode, though - I wish its editor was tabbed like Eclipse. And the Groups & Files list isn’t awfully advanced. I’ve been using the “Implementation Files” group and it’s helped a lot, limiting the header-clutter C environments have in abundance.

So yeah, what fun. I must look around to see if there are any other assignments I can do for the iPhone to learn the various areas - just diving straight into my Serious Dynamic Media Content Presentation demo app for work might be a tad much at this stage:)
