I am creating a new html application using kendo ui. It is calling the web services to get the data and the ui is rendered using Kendo UI. I want this app to be published as ios app.
Is it possible to publish this app directly as a ipad / iphone app ?
Thanks,
Sachin
I thought this information can be useful to someone who is trying to achieve the same thing.
Phonegap Build is the online tool , that allows you to publish html apps as ios , android or windows applications.
All you need is js , css and html pages of your applications with a valid and well formatted config.xml file. You can upload the zip file with all these files and this portal will build the apps for all 3 platforms and will allow you to download the .ipa, .apk and .xap files.
Thanks.

I am working on Worklight Developer Edition Version 6.1. I have created a native component inside a Hybrid app. I am using WL.NativePage.show method for navigating from HTML to native pages. I am having 5 images in an array in a native page. I need to save those images in a DB and need to access the same in a HTML page.
Can anyone tell me, how to do this using DB? (should be common for both Native and Web app)
Can I use Worklight JSONStore in Developer Edition ?
Worklight 6.1 does not support JSONStore in native pages.
Possible solution:
What you can do instead is save the images locally using native code.
Then, in order to access these locally-saved images via the web portion of the app, you could write a custom Cordova plug-in to access it.
You will need to consult with the iOS SDK documentation regarding how to save the file locally.
Some resources:
Download an Image and Save it as PNG or JPEG in iPhone SDK
Adding native functionality using Cordova plug-ins
My IT dept. has a web app built with java and they want to be able to access the stored images on an iPad. Is that possible?
The iOS Safari browser does not run Java. But, as of iOS 6, it does support uploading saved images with a standard HTML file upload form.
i use JSF <t:inputFileUpload> tag to upload files to my site. It works properly in a PC with all browsers but when I test it in my iPad it does not work. It shows as disabled in iOS 5. It uploads images but not text files or pdf or word or excel files in iOS 6.
Have you faced a similar situation? How can I upload documents and spreadsheets from an iPad onto my site?
This problem is not specific to JSF. It's basically just a HTML code generator. It runs on webserver and produces a bunch of HTML which get sent to the client (in your case, the iPad) and then interpreted over there. The <t:inputFileUpload> just generates a HTML <input type="file">.
That HTML element is in turn indeed disabled in Safari Mobile based browsers. JSF look like a magician, but it really can't control whatever the client decides to do with the retrieved HTML. You'd need to look for a 3rd party client side library which enables this in the Safari Mobile side.

i am working on a web application based on media gallery.In this application i am uploading media using SWFUpload either images and videos.When i try to open my application on IOS then uploader not visible there.Where it is working fine on safari installed on windows.I want some suggestions from experts of this field.
one site who is using SWFUpload is http://www.ehproductions.com/mediaimage.htm.
Here SwfUploader working nice on windows but not on IOS machines.
Is there any javax html5 compatible uploader?
Thanks in advance.
According to the description of the SWFUpload:
SWFUpload Upload files to a server via flash and listen all the events
from JavaScript.
As all we know there is no flash on the iOS devices, and as result — uploader not visible there. But the problem is not only in the flash. iOS misses html file input, so you cannot use the same tools you use with other OS/browser. Take a look at this question - "A html5 web app for mobile safari to upload images from the Photos.app?", — for possible workarounds.
I have a native (Obj-C, standard Xcode project) application and I'd like to integrate a partners iOS application (or specifically, it's functionality) into it as just another view in my application. The problem is that their application is a Flex/Air app. I really don't understand the Adobe compilation process on how it gets from a bunch of flex code down to an IPA. I don't see intermediate projects, shared objects, etc on the disk to produce that IPA. It looks like it doesn't rely on the Apple tool chain... as I understand it, you can produce the IPA on Windows as well.
Is there any way to build that Flex app in such a way that I can import it into Xcode so I can link against it and use it as a library from within my application?
While I specifically used iOS as an example since that is the most important platform, we'll want to apply this solution to our respective Android and Blackberry 6 apps as well.
No, you cannot embed an application within another application. This is true for all applications. Only thing you could do is get the swf of your partner's code and embed that into an Air application, but since you're not using Actionscript/Flex, it won't be possible.
Only other way would be to have an app link to the other application.
