iOS Obj-C Getting result.entires to be UItableview Datasource

Hello,

i'm new to v2 and I'm updating an app using objective-c.

When I call a listFolder, I get results.

[[client.filesRoutes listFolder:searchPath]
setResponseBlock:^(DBFILESListFolderResult *result, DBFILESListFolderError *routeError, DBRequestError *error) {
     if (result) {
         NSLog(@result.entries %@.",result.entries);

result.entries = "{\n id = \"id:TT-P7bAf8VEAAAAAAAC6Xw\";\n name = 7777;\n \"path_display\" = \"/Sites/7777\";\n \"path_lower\" = \"/sites/7777\";\n}",

However I need to get this data over to a UItableview controller. Where the results.entries would be placed in:

NSDictionary *item = [results.entries objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];

I'm looking for way to get results.entries to a usable format.

Thanks,

Michael

Thanks for the response, I was able to build without a problem, I was looking to find out if you had a plug and play ready to go.

Hi Michael, it looks like the Dropbox part of this is working correctly. The result.entries value is an NSArray of DBFILESMetadata, which you can use however you like in your app.

For example, you can iterate over that to get the name or pathDisplay of each item, and use those values to construct the UITableViewCells. The use of UITableView and UITableViewCell themselves are outside the scope of Dropbox API support though, so you may be better suited by checking the UITableView documentation or on an Apple forum for information on how to use those.

No, unfortunately we don't have anything pre-built like that.
