We are always
excited to see new libraries come about that enable developers to easily access our Google
data services. Today, the Google Macintosh group has released
an Objective-C Google data APIs library that does just that for
all Objective-C developers.
Greg Robbins, Software Engineer in the
Google Macintosh team, wrote about the release:
I created a framework to use Google data APIs directly in
Objective-C programs. We are using the framework for our application development, and today we
are making the framework available to all developers. The Google Data APIs Objective-C Library joins MacFUSE and Breakpad as
open-source development efforts of Google's Mac software team, hosted at code.google.com.
Google
Calendar, Google Base, Google Spreadsheets, and generic Atom feeds like Blogger are supported
now in the framework, with access to more services already in development. If you are a Mac
developer, I hope you'll join the open-source project and help us make even more Mac
applications Google-savvy.
I look
forward to seeing slick, beautiful, Apple application UIs that are backed by Google APIs.
