问题 I'm doing a project in a course at my university on distributed systems. I'm planning on creating something similar to Dropbox ( getdropbox.com ), but with some sort of non-centralized peer-to-peer twist to it. For this i need some method of detecting change in a directory structure. How do you think Dropbox do this? Their implementation works remarkably well. I'm wonder if they use FileSystemWatcher from the win32 api on windows, and something similar and platform dependent on Linux and Mac.

问题 My app uses Dropbox to allow users to make backups of their core data store. Is there a way to determine programmatically if the Dropbox app has been installed, so I can prompt users to set up the backup? I don't want to bug users who don't use Dropbox, but I want to try to get as many users to use backups as possible. 回答1: Dropbox define their own URI scheme, dbapi-1 , and as such you can see if the OS can open URLs using that scheme, as so: if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:

问题 I usually don't ask questions on this, but I'm beating my head against the wall with this one. I am trying to setup WAMP to work with Dropbox. I've used both these tutorials (http://mymediamagnet.com/how-to-setup-wamp-with-dropbox/ and http://abhisheksachan.blogspot.com/2012/08/web-development-environment-made-easy.html) as they both tell me the same thing. The httpd.conf settings that you make in Apache have worked great. All my files in my new www folder are respected and are shared across

问题 posting here because I've not received a response over at the dropbox forums. dropbox forum post A few months ago I implemented the dropbox chooser and got everything working fine.
