Is it possible to have a GAE channel-API to iphone?

I want to try using channel-API 开发者_开发百科between my GAE app and the iphone. I'm not sure where to start... should I try it with UIWebView that runs a javascript?

Well, it's possible on the iPhone. Of course, it should be on a different NSThread... and it's a nightmare to debug because of the bad access to JS from the iphone.

Have you considered using push notifications to tell the app to fetch the new data?

A web view running the Channel API JS may work, but you probably want to use XMPP. See this article and try this project.

I think you must have some kind of app-in-the-middle native app that communicate with the channel's javascript
