  • 0

I’d like to play with the idea of creating a server program that communicates with an iPhone app over socket connections. I’ve found several guides within Apple’s documentation for client side programming (with CFNetwork, NSStream, etc) but I don’t know where to begin on programming the server application, or even what language to use, or for that matter, how to deploy and run a server application on my current web hosting package through Go Daddy. A simple instant messenger style application example should get me started, but any advice is appreciated.

    if you want to create socket connection is better to use CFNetwork , it has more flexibility for you I already used NSURLConnection but CFNetwork has better performance. this is my steps and how I developed my app :

    1. configuration of server
    2. selection C++ for my server side (service)
    3. start to develop a client-side app for iphone to connect to server using NS classes
      but I had some problems in sending and receiving message to and form server . so I changed it to CF classes it works better and faster now.
