Hi and thanks for this great article. Unfortunately, the best alternative, Airplay SDK (Marmalade) is not free now.

Reverse engineering is not illegal everywhere, no matter what Apple’s EULA says.

Matthew – Can you use Xcode to provision your iphone device and sign the app and download it into your iPhone/iPad from Virtualbox?

Definitely can go all the way thru to the app store with dragonfiresdk. I have an app on there now that I developed with it. Some of the favorite apps developed with it are along the bottom of the dragonfire site. You can verify them.

Hi Shenna – that sounds pretty accurate – while I’m not 100% up to date on the latest Dragonfire SDK updates – there are several frameworks like that.. what they do is give you a wrapper that allows you to run code in a windows based simulator (basically a window with the size of an iOS device) .

Then when you want to run/test your app you send your raw source code to them and they compile it into an app.

One thing to be aware of though is that you should definitely do this with your own developer account – take note of Apple’s latest policy towards having your apps submitted belonging to a developer account other than your own. —

“You” and “Your” means and refers to the person(s) or legal entity (whether the company, organization, educational institution, or governmental agency, instrumentality, or department) using the Apple Software or otherwise exercising rights under this Agreement. For the sake of clarity, You may authorize contractors to develop Applications on Your behalf, but any such Applications must be submitted under Your developer account.

–

Also don’t confuse the word fully to mean you can add in all features available within the iOS SDK.. you are limited to the features of the wrapper your are using if you chose to go that route.
