Open Source Objective C Libraries

FUSE for macOS allows you to extend macOS's native file handling capabilities via third-party file systems. FUSE for macOS is a successor to MacFUSE, which has been used as a software building block by dozens of products, but is no longer being maintained.

CocoaAsyncSocket provides easy-to-use and powerful asynchronous socket libraries for macOS, iOS, and tvOS. The classes are described below. The project is currently configured to build for iOS, tvOS and Mac. Simply add the package dependency to your Package.swift and depend on "CocoaAsyncSocket" in the necessary targets. You can also include it into your project by adding the source files directly, but you should probably be using a dependency manager to keep up to date. GCDAsyncSocket is a TCP/IP socket networking library built atop Grand Central Dispatch. Automatically accept incoming connections over both IPv4 and IPv6 with a single instance of this class. No more worrying about multiple sockets. Secure your socket with ease using just a single method call. Available for both client and server sockets. It runs entirely within its own GCD dispatch_queue, and is completely thread-safe. Further, the delegate methods are all invoked asynchronously onto a dispatch_queue of your choosing.

OHHTTPStubs is a library designed to stub your network requests very easily. It can help you test your apps with fake network data (stubbed from file) and simulate slow networks, to check your application behavior in bad network conditions, and write unit tests that use fake network data from your fixtures. OHHTTPStubs headers are fully documented using Appledoc-like / Headerdoc-like comments in the header files. Instead of writing the content of the stubs you want to use manually, you can use tools like SWHttpTrafficRecorder to record network requests into files. This way you can later use those files as stub responses. OHHTTPStubs is split into subspecs so that when using Cocoapods, you can get only what you need, no more, no less. OHHTTPStubs supports Swift 2.2 (Xcode 7), Swift 2.3 (Xcode 8), Swift 3.0 (Xcode 8+) and Swift 3.1 (Xcode 8.3+).

REX: Remote EXecution Distributed Computing Services for Linux and Solaris, providing C and C++ APIs, librex library and "rexd" daemon software to implement Load Balancing Process Migration : Dump + Restore, Remote File and Resource Management.

Instructions and source code to build a native ROS port for the iOS platform. The project also includes a sample application for testing.

Designed for use in embedded devices the mGSTEP libraries implement a subset of NeXT's OPENSTEP specification which has evolved into Apple's Cocoa Objective-C frameworks. The internal graphics rasterization supports rendering to an X11 or Linux frame-buffer based GUI.
