VNC viewer for iPhone, cotvnc or libvncclient [closed]

I am working on a VNC viewer application for iPhone, and connecting it to tightVNCServer. I have discovered that I can either:

  • Modify COTVNC to build my own version for iPhone
  • Use C-based libvncclient library and bind it with Objective-C code

Which solution will provide the most features supported by tightVNCServer, such as file transfer, etc ?

I'm going to quickly end your debate : both are licensed under the GPL license. And GPL-licensed code is not allowed on the AppStore (remember how Apple pulled VLC off of the store ?). So your choice has to be "none", unless you're ready to see countless hours of work go down the drain...

Take a look at TightVNC commerical license for a fast solution. It is not under GPL license.
