Mobile Revolution

• Next generation mobile devices

• iPhone, Google Android, Palm Pre

• Reality augmentation services

• Geolocation, personalization, omni*

• Always on, always available

The Challenge

• Take existing web site to a mobile platform

• Learn how to develop on the iPhone

• Leverage existing data assets

• Limitations of the iPhone SDK

The Solution

• Generate Objective-C source code from Web Service Definition Language (WSDL)

• Something like .NET or Flex

• Make it available in a simple code bundle

• Make it easy and repeatable

How To Use

• Copy folders into XCode

• Implement a UITableViewController- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView*)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section- (UITableViewCell*)tableView:(UITableView*)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath*)indexPath- (void)tableView:(UITableView )tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath*)indexPath

• Implement the SoapDelegate methods- (void) onload: (NSObject*) result- (void) onerror: (NSError*) error- (void) onfault: (SoapFault*) fault
