Trying to implement unity-webview in Unity. But I get a WebView DllNotFoundException and I can't seem to find the dll anywhere in the source to link to it. Anyone know where I can find it?

You mean you are going to use it for Windows? unity-webview supports only Android, iOS, OS X, and WebPlayer.

I am needing to use the widevine api in an ios app written in xamarin. From what I understand I need to make a wrapper for the library and such, but I have no idea where to start. Can anyone either explain in more detail what to do, or point me somewhere that explains it well?
Thanks, I am quite new to Xamarin, and rusty on C#
You definitely want to follow Jason's comment. In short, you need the .a (fat library) and the header files and then create a Xamarin.iOS binding project that exposes the native interface to C#. Access to the source code is not necessary.
Is it possible to create an iOS library or framework using libgdx (RoboVM) that can be imported into Xcode?
Background:
One of my colleagues has created a 3D visualisation app as a libgdx project for android and windows desktop. It can be compiled to run on iOS using RoboVM. However, I would like to wrap extra native user interface elements around it using Xcode. I know its possible to build the user interface programmatically via RoboVM but I would be keen to investigate if its possible to bring the existing work into Xcode. I don't need to edit the 3D visualisation component but add extra GUI elements around the 3D Vis window. I thought compiling the libgdx (RoboVM) code to a framework or library might be a solution that could be imported?!
Yes you can do it.
All you need to create a method, say initRoboVM(), This will be called by your code when you want to initialize libgdx. You'll need to pass the app path in, which you can hardcode when you're testing.
initRoboVM() will need some modifications, namely it should not call your Java app's main method, well, at least, that's what well behaving libraries should not do IMO. It should also not call rvmShutdown.
You can get further information from here
Thanks :)
I asked the RoboVM team directly. Their answer: It's not a native function, but it certainly can be done.
The complete message...
Hi,
Sorry for the late reply. This use case is not something we're going
to do now. It is possible though if you're prepared to do some
patching of RoboVM. Search the RoboVM Google Group and you should find
others who have managed to get this working.
We get this request every know and then so we will add support for
this eventually.

I'm looking for a library similar to https://github.com/amlcurran/ShowcaseView
I want to be able to implement forced tutorials on new users who open my application for the first time. Does anyone know where I can find a library that helps make this easy?
You ca try https://github.com/rahuliyer95/iShowcase
This is a quite similar iOS implementation of the ShowcaseView for Android (https://github.com/amlcurran/ShowcaseView).
I want to embed mono into my iOS application. I do not want to use MonoTouch. I want to embed mono manually like this:
http://www.mono-project.com/Embedding_Mono
I've have done this successfully on windows, using the above guide and various online examples, here's a good Windows one:
https://github.com/inkdev/Embedded-Mono-Sample
However I'm having trouble getting started on iOS. I know it can be done, companies like Unity3d use it to power their game engine tech. I can't work out how to compile and link mono for iOS nor can I find any good instructions to do so. I've not found any help using search engines, they exclusively seem to turn up articles about MonoTouch (Xamarin's own commercial wrapper around embedding mono into iOS).
Here's a few more noteworthy links:
http://www.mono-project.com/Mono:ARM
http://web.archive.org/web/20090106023130/http://mono-project.com./Mono:Iphone
Is there somewhere I can get precompiled libraries and headers for Mono for iOS, so in my C code I can simply link and include?
Could someone provide and example of how to compile mono for iOS ARM CPUs?
MonoTouch provides a great wrapper around all of the iOS Objective C APIs, however you don't necessarily need all of that, as I understand it should be possible to compile and then embed mono yourself and then use pInvoke to call the few native functions you will need.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, ty!
While not exactly what you are asking for, iOS 7 has added support for scripting with JavaScript. Many people finding this post may want to use this new capability to achieve what you are attempting. Link
As Rolf said, you need to read Mono Licensing document first. Embedding mono on iOS requires special permission from Xamarin.
You need to change several build settings from XCode, and here's what I did.
Open (or Create) iOS project
Add libmonoboehm-2.0.a to your project(You can use another version of .a file)
It's in Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/{version}/lib folder
Project -> Build Settings -> Header Search
Add path: /Library/Frameworks/Mono.frameworks/Versions/{version}/include/mono-2.0
Project -> Build Settings -> Library Search
Add path: /Library/Frameworks/Mono.frameworks/Versions/{version}/lib
And, code like this in your iOS application
#include <mono/jit/jit.h>
#include <mono/metadata/mono-config.h>
#include <mono/metadata/assembly.h>
#include <mono/metadata/environment.h>
// ....
const char* dllFile = "ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_DLL_OR_EXE";
domain = mono_jit_init(dllFile);
mAssembly = mono_domain_assembly_open(domain, dllFile);
// ... Do whatever you want :)
Please remember. You need to get license from Xamarin when embedding mono on iOS.
Enjoy :)
I'm working on a new app using MonoTouch and I'd like to store data in AWS.
I saw there is an AWS.net library available from Amazon, but I don't know if I can use it with my MonoTouch app. Can I?
standard .NET binaries won't work, per FAQ: http://monotouch.net/FAQ (Can I use standard desktop Mono assemblies or .NET assemblies with MonoTouch?).
Edited: All you need to do is rebuild the source code with Mono's C# compiler
I think the better option is to use the AWS SDK for iOS and write bindings to the Obj-c library. There are examples out there of how to write bindings if you just do a search for it. It probably isn't the quick solution you were hoping for but you probably don't want to use the SDK for .NET anyway as it probably wasn't intended to be used on the iPhone.
If you do end up writing bindings for it, please post it on github for everyone else to use. Solve once for many, right? :)
For standard upload of files from monotouch to S3 I used this Library ,
recompiled in MonoDevelop using MonoTouch Library Template and done ( use System.Web.Services instead of System.Web ).
Recompile AWS for monotouch has to be really difficult because of the heavy use of System.Web and IOrderedDictionary ( ThirdParty Libraries ).
I just built the AWS SDK for Monotouch/Mono for Android. I had to modify some files and add some classes from the current Mono release.
GitHub repo is located here:
https://github.com/fr500/aws_sdk_monotouch_monodroid
It's my first attempt at this, and it's working but I don't know if my approach is correct. Any help will be appreciated
