Will apple choose to not allow an app to go to the app store if we use JSONKit to parse JSON's from our php document? I would like to use JSONSerializable but that is for ios5 and I am not going to alienate ios4 members on 3gs by doing that.
You can use JSONKit in an iPhone app. Apple will not reject it based on that.
It's using private APIs they get upset about. :)
No. You can import your own class or library to parse JSON that you want. So long as you aren't using anything within Apple API's that are undocumented, you will be more than fine. Those are all well established parsers. No worries.
Nope, assumably they are unable to tell what source files you use in your application. JSONKit is licensed under the BSD License which allows redistribution;

I have an Objective-C project whose .ipa was tested with this tool online: https://www.immuniweb.com/mobile
It reports that my app has a high risk security issue, pointing to the canAuthenticateAgainstProtectionSpace in the NSURLConnectionDelegate protocol.
This method has been deprecated by iOS after 8.0 version. My app is not using it directly anywhere and I suppose this is not used by apple also even indirectly, since it is deprecated.
I tried a sample ipa (new project with nothing in it) with Objective-C project and the same issue came for that as well. But it did not come for a sample ipa which supported Swift. Even if this is just a warning, is there a way to fix other than just supporting Swift language only?
The tool has detected that the .h file that defines the NSURLConnectionDelegate protocol declares the canAuthenticateAgainstProtectionSpace function. This is, of course, to be expected.
It would make more sense for the tool to report implementations of the method, not simply declarations of it
Since you haven’t implemented this method you don’t need to worry about flaws in your implementation.
As for getting rid of the issue...Don’t use the tool? It doesn’t seem very good based on this.
Is there an option to tell it not to scan .h files?
TBH it seems like a bug in the tool if not any of your Libraries or Frameworks internally uses that.
In your test for the sample Objective C project it's reported as bug however for a sample swift project it's not reported Hence I guess it's more of bug from the tool side.
I would suggest you to report this issue to them.Hopefully they will get you back with some suggestions.
or
you can try some other pen-testing tools as well.
Currently, I got a task to explore google flatbuffers on iOS and OSX. I explored the documentation provided by Google.
Also found some libraries on Github on swift language like FlatBuffersSwift and others that implement the flatbuffers.
So, I have mainly two concerns on that
Will Apple approve my app if I used this in my iOS application?
Is it possible to create schema on runtime from JSON ? or we must manually create schemas (.fbs) and use flatc library for creating model binaries (like .swift) files.
Any help please
Thanks in advance
1) There's nothing in the Apple approval process that has to do with your choice of serialization library.
2) To get the benefits of this library, you want to create a schema and generate code for it ahead of compilation time. If your use case is so dynamic that you want to be able to do everything at runtime, you're probably better off with a good JSON library.
I'm new to encrypting in iOS and i'm stuck with AES128 encryption. Is there some pre-built library (perhaps OpenSSL) which i can use easily?
If so, how do I implement it and use it? Are there tutorials?
I've found several "easy" tutorials how to build OpenSSL and import it to Xcode, but none of them worked for me. Also, it needs to be compatible with iOS4, so solution via CommonCrypto doesn't seem to be a solution (since several essential methods are only iOS 5+ compatible).
Thanks for any kind of help, i'm pulling my hair out over this :)
This is written in Obj-C and allows for AES128 encryption of NSString and NSData.
I take it back. It uses CommonCrypt.
If anyone is still interested in this question i found a solution on http://dotmac.rationalmind.net/2009/02/aes-interoperability-between-net-and-iphone/ . On this page you can download very simple obj-c classes which are compatible with iOS4 and doesn't need any 3rd party libraries.
For generating PDF files we can use Core Graphics. Similarly is there any framework / class that can be used for generating .ppt (power point presentation) files via code ? Or is there any third party framework for this purpose.
There's no in-built Apple API, and I've never heard of a third-party framework for this.
Seems there are still no open source solutions for this for iOS platform. Aspose seems to have something and another commercial that pretty recently emerged - libpptx.com, at least it provides some generic functionality to craft pptx
Im supposed to use SIP for my application. I went through some documentation regarding SIP like ietf-sip-documentation , siphon , linphone for iphone and ipod. But nowhere they have mentioned about any available frameworks or any such a thing for implementation part. There are lot of things that are yet unsettling to me about SIP. I would love to get a little more clarity on this. Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: I would want to know whether there are any frameworks available for ios or should we create our own classes for the interface?
Thanks
Doubango framework http://doubango.org/ / https://code.google.com/p/doubango/ also does a nice job here. C-based, so you would probably like to do your own Objective-C wrappers.
How about resiprocate or PJSIP? Both can be compiled for iOS. Do you also need RTP and media handling? If so, PJSIP has that built in as well.
