API v2 for Objective-C?

[Yoash A.]

Following your announcement about deprecating v1, do you support Objective-C for v2?

[Greg-DB]

Thanks for the feedback everyone! 

Yes, we are working on an Objective-C SDK for API v2. We expect to be able to release it in August.

And apologies for the broken link! We're in the process of rolling out a placeholder page there to let developers know about the upcoming SDK.

Here is a detailed guide how to migrate to v2 on Objective-C with the CloudRail SDK. https://cloudrail.com/dropbox-ios-sdk-objective-c-dropbox-integration-guide-v1-v2/

Is your Objective-C SDK for v2 only going to support iOS, as your Swift implementation does? Some of us need to support OS X/MacOS as well, and some attention there would be appreciated.

[Cloud R.]

Yes, it's currently iOS only but we'll have a look on MacOS soon. So far we have Java, Node.js and Android as well if that helps. https://cloudrail.com

What a joke, they deprecate the working v1 API and have absolutely no plan to offer a solution to objective C programmers that are using the existing v1 API? Really? If they don't have something planned and disclose it by new years we will be dropping support for dropbox completely from all products.

@Mike K.: The API v2 Obj-C SDK is currently in beta (https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-obj-c) pending a few additions, and will be released for production at the end of this week. Thanks for your patience here.

When the Obj-C SDK is finally released, will it be available in the form of a pre-built library, or will we still have to build it ourselves?  And will there be documentation?

[Stephen C.14]

@Robert S.: The SDK is available via CocoaPods, Carthage and as a separate framework file, so you have a variety of options for integrating with your project.

[Dennis B.20]

That's good to hear that you're supporting Catharge. I hope you'll do the same for the Swift implementation. I also hope you'll be releasing an OS X implementation in Swift. And of course that it and the iOS version will be ready for Swift 3.0 development.

[Robert S.138]

If the SDK is available as a separate framework file, why does this page:

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/objective-c#overview

still say the SDK is not available, and there is nothing available under the "Install", "Tutorial", and "Documentation" tabs on that page either?
