补充一下其他人已经说过的话(好吧!):我的感觉是你基本上把你需要担心的bug数量增加了一倍，把MonoTouch中的bug添加到iPhone OS中已经存在的bug中。更新新的操作系统版本将比正常情况下更加痛苦。恶心，到处都是。

我认为MonoTouch唯一引人注目的情况是，那些有大量c#程序员和c#代码的组织必须在iPhone上使用。(就是那种3500美元都不眨眼的商店。)

但对于任何从零开始的人来说，我真的不认为这是值得或明智的。

使用Mono并不是一种依赖。它为iPhone操作系统增加了很多功能。LINQ, WCF, Silverlight应用程序之间的可共享代码，ASP。NET页面，一个WPF应用程序，一个Windows Form应用程序，还有针对Android的mono它也适用于Windows Mobile。

So, you can spend a bunch of time writing Objective-C (You'll see from many studies where the exact same sample code in C# is significantly less to write than OC) and then DUPLICATE it all for other platforms. For me, I chose MonoTouch because the Cloud App I'm writing will have many interfaces, the iPhone being only one of them. Having WCF data streaming from the cloud to MonoTouch app is insanely simple. I have core libraries that are shared among the various platforms and then only need to write a simple presentation layer for the iPhone/WinMobile/Android/SilverLight/WPF/ASP.NET deployments. Recreating it all in Objective-C would be an enormous waste of time both for initial dev and maintenance as the product continues to move forward since all functionality would have to be replicated rather than reused.

那些侮辱MonoTouch或暗示它的用户需要拐杖的人，是缺乏拥有。net框架的大蓝图，可能不理解逻辑与表示的正确分离，这种分离可以在跨平台和设备上重用。

Objective-C is interesting and very different from many common languages. I like a challenge and learning different approaches... but not when doing so impedes my progress or creates unnecessary re-coding. There are some really great things about the iPhone SDK framework, but all that greatness is fully supported with MonoTouch and cuts out all the manual memory management, reduces the amount of code required to perform the same tasks, allows me to reuse my assemblies, and keeps my options open to be able to move to other devices and platforms.

三个字:Linq to SQL

是的，很值。

我已经使用MonoTouch几个月了，我从ObjectiveC移植了我的半成品应用，这样我就可以在未来的某个时候支持Android。

以下是我的经验:

不好的地方在于:

Xamarin Studio. Indie developers such as myself are forced into using Xamarin Studio. It is getting better every week, the developers are very active on the forums identifying and fixing bugs, but it's still very slow, frequently hangs, has a lot of bugs and debugging is pretty slow also. Build times. Building my large (linked) app to debug on a device can take a few minutes, this is compared to XCode which deploys almost immediately. Building for the simulator (non-linked) is a bit quicker. MonoTouch issues. I've experienced memory leak issues caused by the event handling, and have had to put in some pretty ugly workarounds to prevent the leaks, such as attaching and detaching events when entering and leaving views. The Xamarin developers are actively looking into issues like this. 3rd party libraries. I've spent quite a time converting/binding ObjectiveC libraries to use in my app, although this is getting better with automated software such as Objective Sharpie. Larger binaries. This doesn't really bother me but thought I'd mention it. IMO a couple of extra Mb is nothing these days.

好的方面:

多平台。我的朋友很高兴地用我的核心代码库为我的应用程序创建了一个Android版本，我们正在并行开发，并将其提交给Dropbox上的远程Git存储库，进展顺利。 . net。在c# . net中工作比在Objective C中工作要好得多。 MonoTouch。iOS中几乎所有的东西都映射到。net中，让事情正常工作是相当直接的。 Xamarin的。你可以看到这些人真的在努力改进一切，使开发更顺畅和更容易。

我强烈推荐Xamarin进行跨平台开发，特别是如果你有钱使用与Visual Studio合作的商业版或企业版。

如果你只是在创造一款在其他平台上永远都不需要的iPhone应用，并且你是一名独立开发者，那么我现在会坚持使用XCode和Objective C。

我想补充一点，即使有一个公认的答案——谁能说苹果不会拒绝那些有迹象表明是用Mono Touch构建的应用呢?

如果这是你唯一要开发的iPhone应用程序，而你对开发Mac应用程序毫无兴趣，那么MonoTouch可能是值得的。

如果你想要开发更多的iPhone应用，或者想要做一些Mac原生开发，那么学习Objective-C和相关框架可能是值得的。另外，如果你是那种喜欢学习新东西的程序员，这是一个有趣的新范式。
