Hi, gentlemen!

i'm new in iPhone/iPad programming, but have some years of general experience in Windows and Linux, low-level included.

Now I need to solve a design problem in iXXX programming.

Is it possible to create a sort of Loader application? This Loader should parse the AppStore, download any requested app and run it. Also it must directly run already downloaded apps if required...

I'm OK with C++ and learning Object-C + iPhone SDK now.

Many thanks for any help provided.
 
No.

App-store apps aren't permitted to download executables, nor to launch or terminate resident executables.

If you want something like that, you have to take the jailbreak path.
 
Yep, I understand.

And I did a sort of loader for non-AppStore. It even worked. For my 1week experience with Apple products it's OK for now.

Thanks.
