Releasing SecureSocket a small Objective-C/Cocoa API to UNIX TCP sockets with SSL support.
Can be found on github at http://github.com/poitch/SecureSocket
I basically been trying to write simple client to different protocols (IMAP, SMTP, NNTP …), most of which has support for both SSL and not SSL and well I’m sure there are similar solutions out there, but this seems to be working just fine for me for now.
After going through the pain of trying to integrate other JSON parsers with my different iPhone projects, I realized it is a fairly annoying task. It’s not impossible and I eventually got it to work, but when I do quick prototype applications, I really don’t want to go through that pain.
So to solve that problem I created a pure Objective-C JSON parser, it is self-contained, and uses NSScanner only. It should work for Cocoa on the Mac and on the iPhone as well. Basically just drop the 2 files into your project and you can start parsing JSON.
This probably shouldn’t be used in a “big” project, though for small payloads I’m sure it can just do fine. It was really not designed to be performant or optimized, just functional and easy to drop in any project.
It is hosted on GitHub, and the license is basically free of use, you can give me attribution if you want to, but I’m not expecting this to be used in actual released applications.
I have long wanted to release some of my work under some open source license and so I’m starting with my personal implementation of an MVC PHP web framework.
I wanted something very light, quick to setup, that would run on most hosting services so I wrote my own Model View Controller framework.
This framework was actually used to power a Top 5 (Photo Category) Facebook Application, and a Top 5 (Overall) Bebo Application, so it is somewhat mature. I’m sure there are issues that I’m hoping to fix in future releases. I had code spread out and gathered everything for this release, so I haven’t been able to test everything.
Anyway the name of the framework is dokin and can be found here.
It definitely needs work on the documentation part.
