  • 0

For my IOS Application, the client interacts with the server through a fairly substantial client library in C. I am recreating the app on a website, and I was wondering if I needed to rewrite this library in javascript. Would it be possible to say, transfer the original static client library to the client through local storage and somehow execute it? Or to download it as a plugin (how would I do this)? This is just speculation. Any ideas for a possible solution would be very helpful. It needs to be client-side because it streams and decodes a video feed through tcp.

Thanks in advance

    As you iOS application uses a library in C the only way (somewhat experimental) is to use Google Native Client which is a sandboxing technology for running a subset of Intel x86 or ARM native code safely from a web browser. But by now it is only available on Chrome.
    Otherwise you have to write it in Javascript in order to be cross platform and run it from nearly every web browsers. Moreover you can modify our iOS application and make it hybrid, and then you can use the same Javascript library in your iOS application and in the client web browser.
