How to classdump SpringBoard header files and patch it

To classdump the SpringBoard header,

class-dump-x /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS2.2.sdk/System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/SpringBoard -H -o Springboard

class-dump-x is available in Mac OS X and iPhone here

class-dumped header files are not directly usable and you should use this patch script to change the import statement of the dumped header files.
