web services - Best approach for building a chat application ios 6 -
We need to create a chat application with the deployment target of iOS 6. I have the following doubts about this,
1. Does the apple provide an SDK for such an application?
2. Is the timer used to pull chat messages by pulling from the server on real time using bridge requests? If so, will it affect memory performance and app performance ?? 3. Do we have to maintain a local cache of each message ?? 4. With recent research, I have learned about CCLL Framework. Is this a good choice to create chat applications ??
I can advise you to use for iOS This is an open source project that implements XMPP protocol Does.
Based on XML format, it is easy to expand functionally by adding custom tags to store any additional data you need.
Most platforms (client- and server-side) in XMPP protocol
You can use for server side.
Answer to your questions:
- No, Apple does not offer special solutions for chat apps.
- XMPP Framework based on sockets (push notification mechanism).
- XMPPFramework provides mechanisms to store chat history in the local database (based on core data). Also you can load history from the server.
