About

A library to communicate with services of Apple iOS devices using native protocols.

Requirements

Development Packages of:

• OpenSSL or GnuTLS
• libplist
• libusbmuxd

Software:

• usbmuxd (OSS or Apple's version)
• make
• autoheader
• automake
• autoconf
• libtool
• pkg-config
• gcc or clang

Optional:

• cython (Python bindings)
• doxygen (Documentation)

Installation

To compile run:

./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install

If you require a custom prefix or other option being passed to ./configure you can pass them directly to ./autogen.sh like this:

./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/local --enable-debug-code
make
sudo make install

By default, OpenSSL will be used. If you prefer GnuTLS, configure with --disable-openssl like this:

./autogen.sh --disable-openssl
