Creating and delivering successful apps is becoming increasingly challenging. Apps need to stand out from the crowd by delivering a more engaging experience with richer content. They also need to reach the widest possible audience, running on iOS, Android, and beyond.
Marmalade SDK will offer developers the possibility to create more powerful apps, while also delivering them across all platforms or devices.
Power and portability
Marmalade is the world’s most powerful SDK for the creation of richer apps and games on iOS, Android, BlackBerry, Symbian and other platforms. Marmalade’s unique architecture abstracts platform variations while providing direct access to the CPU and GPU - so you get maximum performance, flexibility and portability across most smartphones and tablets. No virtual machines, no code conversion – no compromise.
Richer APIs
Offers the richest API set of any cross-platform apps SDK, including:
· Camera, microphone, GPS, accelerometer, compass and contacts
· HTTP, sockets, Facebook and database access
· Compressed audio/video and sound mixing
· Highly advanced UI, 2D and 3D graphics support
Extendable to native OS APIs
The only SDK that allows developers to maintain a single codebase, while allowing full use of native platform APIs on iOS and Android through the Marmalade Extensions Development Kit (EDK). Always cross-platform, but never lowest-common-denominator.
Open and standards-based
Developers can write in plain C++, with the C/C++ standard libraries and OpenGL ES fully supported. Open Source modules usually compile out-of-the-box and the Marmalade Code Community is continually adding to the suite of modules available for Marmalade apps.
Enjoy a single development environment
Develop either in Visual C++ on Windows, or Xcode on Mac and never use any OS platform SDKs again. Deploying to any target device does not require different desktop machines, development environments or platform SDKs.
Join the growing Marmalade community
Over 30,000 developers have already chosen Marmalade to take their apps further. Make sure your apps are made with Marmalade.

What's New in This Release:
· Android: android.jar updated to Android-15.
· iOS: Fixed r9 register corruption that could occur with multi-threading.
· Android: Fixed small bug with surface orientation when DispFixRot was used.
· On slower phones the first GL frame would be noticeably oriented the wrong way. Also, debug splash would be oriented the wrong way as well.
· s3eIOSAppStoreBilling: General tidy and fix for docs/example/extension.
· Specifically, added wrappers around iOS return values to check for null. Bugs
· on their side caused the extension to crash so we add some better checking
· here. Also fixed m_Retain, which didn't work. Remove some minor bugs from example which could cause crashes in certain circumstances.
· ARM: Fixed bug where inet_addr didn't return -1 if an invalid IP was specified.
· Android: Fixed bug with s3eSound restarting after pause-resume event at full
· volume. The volume state is now maintained.
· XCode: Added support for custom build rules. Also added documentation as
