Re: iPhone SDK and Mailchimp API

[jesse]

An Objective-C wrapper was released a few months ago:
http://www.mailchimp.com/blog/introducing-chimpkit-mailchimp-api-wrapper/

I haven't used it or looked at the documentation, but you may have
problems with it, too, because your initial issue is that you aren't
following the documentation:
http://www.mailchimp.com/api/1.2/

That describes how to use the serialized version of the API. There are
examples of using it on the examples page.
http://www.mailchimp.com/api/examples

Moreover, I'd suggest first becoming familiar with our app via the web
interface, then working through the API. Then, when reading through
the docs, realize that in most cases where fields cross-reference each
other (such as GROUPINGS), we've linked them to methods that will give
you the info you need.

Yeah, it really should have been on the downloads page - that and the
Android one are now.

Also you guys should let people know which iPhone frameworks to link
in.

I am figuring that out right now.. but and i'll post once I have the
right linkages and linker flags in.

We don't maintain that, so it would be better to post notes on the
github issue tracker.
