The MoSync Toolchain
The MoSync IDE uses a custom GCC backend that outputs MoSync Intermediate Language. This is fed into Pipe-Tool, our transformation engine, which builds code trees, analyzes, optimizes and outputs bytecode or java ready for packaging with the appropriate runtime. The packager does the work of producing the installable packages for your platforms and devices. Read more...

A Flexible Moblet Class
If you have programmed a MoSync app in C++ you have probably used the Moblet class. This class abstracts away the low-level MoSync event loop and provides high-level methods and listeners to reduce the amount of code needed to develop mobile apps.
As with all abstractions, the Moblet class also takes away some of the control from the developer. A game developer asked on Twitter how to dynamically start and stop the Moblet event loop, and when I looked into this it turned out that the functionality required for doing that was abstracted away and hidden from the programmer.

What's New in MoSync SDK 3.0
Our 3.0 release is a major step forward for cross-platform mobile application development. We've made it easy to port existing PhoneGap JavaScript apps to MoSync with little or no change required. We've implemented the majority of our libraries and APIs on Windows Phone 7. We've made it possible to access native widgets from your JavaScript code. There are great new C++ libraries for notifications, and APIs for advertising banner, SQL databases, and audio streaming. Read more...
The Notification Library and API
Update: From MoSync 3.2.1 local notifications can be triggered on Android devices regardless of the running state of the application. Therefore, LocalNotification::setDisplayFlag() will have no effect and the behaviour will be consistent on both Android and iOS.Use maTime() ( instead of maLocalTime() ) in conjunction with setFireDate() in order to schedule a local notification, as shown in the example below.The MoSync Notifications Library provides a set of C++ classes and methods for handling both push notifications (coming from a service provider) and local notifications (originating from the device itself.) The Library is built on top of the MoSync Notifications API which provides a comprehensive set of C syscall functions. Read more...
