window support, event support, and userinterface management, and it lets you create both text and web pages. It further acts as your interface to the accelerometers, the camera, the photo library, and devicespecific information.
Media is where you can get access to the major audio and video protocols built into the iPhone and iPad. Its four graphical technologies are OpenGL ES, EAGL (which connects OpenGL to your native window objects), Quartz (which is Apple’s vectorbased drawing engine), and Core Animation (which is also built on Quartz). Other frameworks of note include Core Audio, Open Audio Library, and Media Player.
Core Services offers the frameworks used in all applications. Many of them are data related, such as the internal Address Book framework. Core Services also contains the critical Foundation framework, which includes the core definitions of Apple’s objectoriented data types, such as its arrays and sets.
Core OS includes the kernel-level software. You can access threading, files, networking, other I/O, and memory.
