I am trying to follow this blog for building push services for iPhone. The blog uses Android as the working platform,but it can be migrated to iPhone too, provided I get an MQTT client in objective C..which I cant find anywhere. The closest I got to this is :

  1. I got a C implementation here - libmosquitto

  2. This post says I can use something like an HTTP bridge.

Can anyone please help me exploit these two options ? I dont know the next step to take :(

Thanks !!

I'm not familiar with Objective C at all, but it seems as though you can compile any C code as Objective C. Would this get round your problem?

If you're using gcc, you can force it to compile as Objective C using "-x objective-c".

The HTTP option would not help you in this case as you're not trying to talk to a JMS app via MQ (well - you haven't said that is your goal). Your best bet would be to compile something like libmosquitto or one of the other MQTT clients (see list at http://mqtt.org) for the iPhone. There's now a good example https://github.com/njh/marquette which uses mosquitto's libraries on iOS

I am currently using MQTTKit in my projects. It's fairly easy and straightforward to use.

For swift you can use the following library : https://github.com/ltg-uic/ios-mqtt-base
