iOS Question Porting from B4A to B4i

[luke2012]

Hi all,
are there some guide lines / Tutorials in order to make a porting of a B4A App based on the "data collection solution" (https://goo.gl/DXAGF4) ?
The B4A App components (filled with some code) are:

- Starter (that starts another service in "StartForeground" mode)
- A service started as "StartForeground" mode
- Main with subs to call B4J Server handlers (HttpJobs)

Thanks in advance for your help

Hello

I don't know any guide but, you can use everyone of these easily. For example, instead of the starter service I use application_start .
httpjob and other subs are nearly identical. Only difference i make while porting is , while using parser, instead of using parser.nextarray for android , I use parser.nextobject in ios.

Thanks for your reply! And what about "StartForeground" services in iOS ?

I don't know much about it in android so i don't have any idea. if the purpose of this is :

Android will treat your application as if it is a visible application and will not kill it.

I don't think it is possible with b4i but as i said i am not sure about it.

There are no services in iOS. There are very specific things that you can do in the background. What exactly is the app supposed to do in the background?
