IOS build error: No visible @interface for 'DBFILESUserAuthRoutes' declares the selector 'uploadData

 

DBUserClient * client = [DBClientsManager authorizedClient ];

DBFILESWriteMode *mode = [[DBFILESWriteMode alloc] initWithOverwrite];

   

[[client.filesRoutes uploadData:objPath                                  

                                       mode:mode

                          autorename:@(YES)

                      clientModified:nil

                                mute:@(NO)

                           inputData:fileData]

      setResponseBlock:^(DBFILESFileMetadata *result, DBFILESUploadError *routeError, DBRequestError *networkError) {

          if (result) {

              NSLog(@"%@\n", result);

          } else {

              NSLog(@"%@\n%@\n", routeError, networkError);

          }

      }];

 

 

 

that's the code encountered the error.

I tried many times but still not found the way to correct it. 

 

  • Still I don't know why it encountered this error,,,

    No visible @interface for 'DBFILESUserAuthRoutes' declares the selector 'uploadData:mode:autorename:clientModified:mute:inputData:'

     

     

    DBUserClient * client = [DBClientsManager authorizedClient ];
    DBFILESWriteMode *mode = [[DBFILESWriteMode alloc] initWithOverwrite];
        [[[client.filesRoutes uploadData:@"/test/path/in/Dropbox/account/my_output.txt"
                                     mode:mode

                           clientModified:nil

               }
           }] setProgressBlock:^(int64_t bytesUploaded, int64_t totalBytesUploaded, int64_t totalBytesExpectedToUploaded) {
               NSLog(@"\n%lld\n%lld\n%lld\n", bytesUploaded, totalBytesUploaded, totalBytesExpectedToUploaded);
           } ] ;

       I compared the demo with these codes and they are the same.  Really need help!

  • Zoey03 To clarify, did you solve this, or do you still need help? You marked your last reply as a solution.

     

    Anyway, I recommend just letting Xcode autocomplete the method call, as that will give you the definition for the version of the SDK you have installed.

     

    It sounds like you're referring to this sample, which is now out of date. (I'll ask the team to update that.) It's just missing the new propertyGroups parameter, to which you can pass nil if you're not using that feature. So, an updated version would look like:

     

    NSData *fileData = [@"file data example" dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding allowLossyConversion:NO];
    
    // For overriding on upload
    DBFILESWriteMode *mode = [[DBFILESWriteMode alloc] initWithOverwrite];
    
    [[[client.filesRoutes uploadData:@"/test/path/in/Dropbox/account/my_output.txt"
                                mode:mode
                          autorename:@(YES)
                      clientModified:nil
                                mute:@(NO)
                      propertyGroups:nil
                           inputData:fileData]
      setResponseBlock:^(DBFILESFileMetadata *result, DBFILESUploadError *routeError, DBRequestError *networkError) {
          if (result) {
              NSLog(@"%@\n", result);
          } else {
              NSLog(@"%@\n%@\n", routeError, networkError);
          }
      }] setProgressBlock:^(int64_t bytesUploaded, int64_t totalBytesUploaded, int64_t totalBytesExpectedToUploaded) {
          NSLog(@"\n%lld\n%lld\n%lld\n", bytesUploaded, totalBytesUploaded, totalBytesExpectedToUploaded);
      }];

    It sounds like you're using code written for an older version of the SDK with a newer version of the SDK, where the method definition has since been changed. You can find the documentation for the current method definition here.

     

    You can also have Xcode fill this in automatically using the Xcode autocomplete feature. E.g., type "

    client.filesRoutes uploadData" and select the autocomplete option for the desired method.
