iOS downloadData returns nil for fileContents
iOS / objective C / cocoapods
With api version 3.0.5, everything works file
With api version 3.0.15, I'm not able to download a file using client.fileRoutes downloadData ....
No Error (both error vars are nil)
DBFILESFileMetadata returns valid metadata (I can see correct timestamp of file)
But...
fileContents is nil *** (should contain data)
Again, it works fine on older api version but if I update using cocoapods, I get this problem.
Is this something anyone has heard of before?
Thanks,
Ernie
- Hi Ernie, there have been some bug fixes in recent versions. Can you install the latest version, currently v3.3.4, and let us know if it doesn't help? Thanks in advance!

Ah, I see the issue now. I was using a platform of ios 8.0, and the newer versions require 9.0, so the newest version didn't actually install.
I want to keep supporting 8.0 so I'll continue using your older version for the time being, but at least I know what's going on now.
Thanks for the help!

I had the same issues. But it haven't resolved yet although I installed the latest version 3.3.4.

Okay resolved. Because cocoapod doc said "if the version is not declared cocoapod will automatically install the latest version". But actually when I checked my podfile.lock I found out that my current version of ObjectiveDropboxOffical is 3.0.15.
