loadStreamableURLForFile() in Dropbox iOS SDK does not return anything

Question

i'm trying to get a streamable link URL from an mp3 stored in my Dropbox for an app i'm developing. I use the function loadStreamableURLForFile() but it does not return anything, by the time it's of type void . So how am i supposed to get that streamable URL back?

thanks in advance

In the Dropbox iOS Core SDK, the result of asynchronous calls like this get delivered via a delegate. See https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/start/ios and the use of uploadedFile and uploadFileFailedWithError in particular to understand the delegate pattern.

You should implement these methods (from DBRestClient.h ) to receive the link:

- (void)restClient:(DBRestClient*)restClient loadedSharableLink:(NSString*)link 
forFile:(NSString*)path;
- (void)restClient:(DBRestClient*)restClient loadSharableLinkFailedWithError:(NSError*)error;
