I did it sometime ago and started with the excellent blog entry An Experiment with iPhone Native UI and Unity 3 Pro by Gregg Martin. He provides a running demo for downloading so you can inspect the code. Furtheron I bookmarked a forum thread Unity plugin to handle loading native Cocoa UI's with ease.

When I started integrating m own iOS lib, the most annoying thing was parameter transfer and I ended up in supplying int (=> int*), string (=>const char*), ... because even to get a struct transported to the other end seems to be tricky.

Thats the thing.....Ive been trying for a few days now, my best results were...well nothing. Any way you can help me over TeamViewer or via e-mail. $$anonymous$$ine is fiercemodz@gmail.com I'd like to call it like this in unity displayAlert("Title", "$$anonymous$$essage"); But Im having trouble. All I've got for reference is the Prime31 gyroscope plugin.

To break it down, you should start with the demo project http://clevermartian.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/iPhoneNativeUIExperiment.zip (zip file). Next, what exactly is the error? What is the debugger showing for Title variable?

Well it disappeared on the mentioned web site. There are some copies around or you can look it up in the famous internet archive wayback machine :-): http://web.archive.org/web/20120706195310/http://clevermartian.com/blog/?p=59
