Question

I have an iPhone application and I want to run it on the iPad in normal mode (not in the mini small emulation mode)

How do I compile my program to show up in full screen mode?

Any easy tutorial?

Answer 1

You want to refactor you current iPhone only app in to a Universal app.

iPhone SDK 3.2 [and later] supports the
development of Universal applications.
A Universal app is optimized to run on
all iPhone OS devices—itʼs essentially
an iPhone app and an iPad app built as
a single binary.

More details can be found in the Introducing Universal Applications for iPhone OS documentation.

In order to achieve your design goals
for a Universal application, you will
need to use conditional coding to
determine the availability of features
when your app is running. Conditional
coding allows you to make sure youʼre
loading the right resources, using
functionality thatʼs supported by the
device and properly leveraging
hardware thatʼs available.

In Xcode 4 you can set the device type, be sure to create iPad specific UI for you app.

Once you select Universal xcode will try and help you out by creating some interface-bilder files.
