What are the pros and cons of using AppCelerator versus Objective-C开发者_如何学C

Cons: I'm presuming Appcelerator falls foul of Apple's recent restrictions of the Developer licensing - You can't develop applications through third party systems.

CON:

When working behind a corporate firewall there are proxy issues with the application logging you in and therefore you find yourself in a position that you can't use it or your locked out of your project.

I had it working but now it doesn't

Objective C is probably a more verbose and low-level approach, you may see that as a good or bad thing. Appcelerator lets you develop in Javascript which is a simpler syntax. Objective C targets iPhone only, with Appcelerator the same codebase will produce an app that works on Android too, or near as dammit.

The licensing issues with Apple appear to have been resolved for the time being, however with Redmond being what it is who knows what the future will bring.
