runparam is an open source and free Objective-C development toolkit that allows developers to make their apps easily customizable at run time.
runparam is currently implemented in Objective-C on top of the Foundation framework.
runparam is very likely to be ported to Android and other mobile platforms in the future. Currently supported platforms are Mac OS X 10.6 and higher and iOS 4.0 and higher.
Further details on how to setup and use the runparam development kit with your own apps are available HERE.
Here are some key features of "runparam":
Easy to set up:
· Create one header file with parameter definitions and set up a Run Script build phase in your project to allow the code generator included with the library to do the dirty work for you. Then, when you need to get the value of a parameter in your code, use the GET_VALUE() syntax. Take a look at the sample projects for working examples of this approach.
Accessibility:
· Once your app has at least one parameter defined, add a single line to the source code of your app to make its parameters configurable via remote console (e.g. telnet or nc) or your favorite web browser. The web browser support is not available yet, but is coming soon.
Requirements:
· Apple Xcode
