I'm a card-carrying CLD (although it's about time for a re-cert) and I'm helping write the new embedded developer exam (see? **End of Disclaimer" There are three main parts to the code architecture. So here's a high-level view of the control code. Touch-PC UI Since I've already posted my touch-panel app, I'll not go into much detail about it here.

Brian Gesiak : CI for Open Source iOS Applications, Part 1: Setup This guide will walk you through setting up a Jenkins continuous integration server for your open source iOS project. By the end of the guide, you will be able to add an image to your README indicating the build status of your repository's master branch. Step 1: Provisioning a CI server Jenkins on the Cloud In order to provide developers with feedback on the state of the build, you will need a publicly available Jenkins instance. Normally, this would mean hosting an instance on EC2, setting up permissions to prevent anonymous users from messing with configurations, and other hassles. Free OSS Account CloudBees Jenkins instances are private by default. After registering, you can check out your Jenkins instance at {{ your_domain }}.ci.cloudbees.com. Set up a Slave The Jenkins instance hosted on CloudBees will show other developers the state of the build, but the actual execution has to be on an OS X machine with Xcode installed. Get a Job! Step 2: Automating the Build The Build Script
