Don't they distribute xcode via appstore? it obviously dould not fit in the sandbox. If they make it an exception, can't they be hammered for monopolizing the development tools in the app store for themself?
- glassx 15y agoYeah, they also use it to sell OS X now...
- gcv 15y agoApple distributes the Xcode installer through the App Store. Normal App Store restrictions don't apply.
- guard-of-terra 15y agoCan anybody else distribute a foo installer, so normal restrictions would not apply?
- ryannielsen 15y agoNope. Xcode is special.
- phoboslab 15y agoHow exactly does an installer that can write to any location on your disk fit into a restricted AppStore? Also, does this mean I'm free to distribute my malware installer through the AppStore? After all, it's just an installer.
- c1sc0 15y agoCool! Does this mean I will be allowed to distribute App Install scripts through the AppStore? The best of both worlds: free distribution & full control!
