what is difference between Objective C and xcode?

xcode is an integrated development environment - it's a GUI that you use to program in various languages. It lets you edit your code, compile it, link it, simulate it, instrument it, debug it, etc. It comes with compilers including Objective C++ and C++. It is easiest to program for iPhone in objective c++ since the libraries you need are designed to be called from objective c++.

You should get a book on objective c++.

No need to buy, correct. If you want to test on an actual device, or youwant to sell or distribute your software, at that point you pay apple either $99 of $199 per year, depending on whether you are selling on the app store or within your business.

As for database - is it in the app/ on the phone? Or on a server?

Yes. In order to install your app on an actual device it must be crypotgraphically signed. You pay apple and they give you the necessary cryptographic certificates. These certificates expire annually.

They also entitle you to upload your app to the AppStore.
 
Can we all agree to just ignore these threads? Honestly, if they don't know how to search google, or get confused easily on something like this, then they shouldn't learn it.

actuali i wanted to help him by giving him some advice, but after viewing the thread starter's comments and never ending enquiries, i kinda agree with u, why cant he just google those doubts before postings?? very soon his thread will be 50 pages long, he jus too lazy to search for answers himself. I believe all of us had the same questions when we first started but we somehow managed to find our way through, we can help but he need to do his homework. Else after 50 pages he will still be doing his feasibility studies, and at page 51 he would say, "so troublesome, i dun think i wana be a developer, bye!"
