First of all, great work on this product. basic4android has been a huge time saver for me.

i know that a lot of developers here would like to port their android apps to iphone. i found this site that claims to have a converter that will do just that. i don't know if it works but if it did, would this be something you could add to basic4android? if it worked, it would be really slick if we could convert our android apps to iphone with the click of the mouse.

XMLVM - Android to iPhone

thanks in advance.

Basic4android creates Java bytes code during compilation. So it is theoretically possible to use it with this tool. Personally I have a lot of doubts regarding cross platform compilation. iPhone and Android operating systems are not similar at all and it is hard to believe that there is some magic that can make the same native application run on the two platforms.

Fair enough. I've been developing software for 15 years and dabbled in java most of those years, but i have to admit that objective c is greek to me. i downloaded their libraries and will play around with them when i have the time. If i see any promise, I'll let you know. it would be great if there was some "magic" behind their stuff, as I don't really have the time right now to manually convert android apps to iphone.
