iMBiPhoneView is a solution for transferring data between Macs and 3rd party iPhone applications.

iMBiPhoneView is a custom plugin for iMedia. It comes with a "framework" (currently a set source files in a folder) for enabling iMBiPhoneView in 3rd party iPhone applications. The plugin/framework handle all necessary steps to setup, publish, discover and connect the iPhone application with iMedia via local Bonjour networking, as well as functions to transfer data between iPhone and Mac (in both directions!).

Parameters (such as service type) are configurable without changing the iMedia plugin or the framework code.

The GUI on the iPhone is not handled by the framework itself but delegated to a delegate object in the host application.

The iMedia plugin provides public functions to initiate Mac→iPhone transfers and also delegate callbacks for custom GUI handling.

iMBiPhoneView is still in an early development stage and not fully tested.
