My latest iPhone/iPod touch app, Whiteboard Lite, is now available in the iTunes App Store.
This semester, I’m a Lab Assistant (also sometimes called a Teaching Assistant or TA) for the new ITP 499 iPhone App Development class here at USC (the University of Southern California). The most well-known iPhone App Dev class done so far was at Stanford University (CS 193P); props to them for posting some of their course materials online.
The iPhone offers good localization support the same way Mac OS X does. For strings, developers use a file called “Localizable.strings”. It’s a bit tricky, though. The syntax of the file is strict; any small error will cause it to stop working without warning. Unfortunately, the compiler (which doesn’t touch the file at all) can’t give any warnings or errors when a mistake is present in the file. So check your Localizable.strings closely.
Well, I haven’t blogged in a long time, and now school’s about to start again, so I’d better get to it.
Today I’m going to start learning how to create a toolbar for Firefox, hopefully as a browser extension or add-on. I tried looking for some open source XPIs to work from, but it was more difficult than I thought. So I posted the question on the mozillaZine Forums, and got a helpful response. Looks like a great place to start
