I don't think for one second that we could just build for iOS from a current codebase but I'm still interested in general strategies for designing our code for this end goal. For example, I'm starting work on my next Mac app this week and it's occurred to me that it might make a great iPad app down the line. So, I'm wondering if I should adjust some things from the start. For example - how can I best untangle code (such as methods) from windows? Or should I even try?

If you start by factoring out the user interface from the processing logic - much as you'd have to do for web edition - you'll be in about the best position you can be since the "guts" of your app wont have any direct ties to specific UI presentation. That should at least make that code really reusable. _________________ My web site Great White Software RBLibrary.com REALbasic learning Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 2 posts ] -- Over 1500 classes with 29000 functions in one REALbasic plug-in collection.
