How to know the progress of deleteBatch:
I want to know the progress of deleteBatch: in Objective-C API.
The process periodically calls deleteBatchCheck: and waits for deleteBatch: to finish.
If I delete a lot of files, the wait time is quite long. So I want to know the progress.
I tried using setProgressBlock :, but it returns 100% immediately after calling deleteBatch :.
Is there a good way to know the progress of deleteBatch :?
Thank you.
Unfortunately, the API doesn't offer a way to get the progress of a deleteBatch job like this, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
(The setProgressBlock method is only referring to the network request itself, not the actual asynchronous job occurring on the Dropbox servers.)

Thank you for your reply.
I understand that there is currently no good way.And I hope that a solution will be provided.
