MFi support possible?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Are there any plans to support the MFi controllers on iOS? There is now a hack 
available for JB devices that lets you pair a PS3/4 controller and use that 
instead of the awful $99 official controllers with no changes to the API calls.

Might make some of the multi button games a bit easier to play

MAME4iOS currently support wii and ps3 controllers natively (JB version).

Anyway, I would like to add MFi support. I'm currently a  little busy with no 
time to develop, but i will add in a future update when i have some free time.

Sorry.

 All my devices are on iOS 7.1.  

I was tired to beg with buggy 7.0 on my iPad Air. Las time I checked btstack  
was only arm32. I'm not sure if ps3 controllers are working or not on arm 64 or 
iOS 7.

I would be happy to implement support for MFi controllers(it's not that hard, 
in fact Les Bird did this on the old version of mame4all) but I am having the 
hardest time compiling the project - getting libmamearmv7 built... An updated 
makefile that works with clang(Xcode 5/6) would help me a lot.

Yes, please add MFI controller support.
It will be the best way to play on non jailbreak devices.

Thanks!!!
