Objective C Framework Install
I'm having some major issues here. I see there have been recent updates. I don't use GitHub or Carthage. Just trying to get something working. My question is whether or not I really need to imbed the...
FYI. I was finally able to extract what I needed from DBRoulette and got it working. My file handler is now able to connect, navigate folders, add a folder, delete file/folder, download, and upload. Got a few more test ahead, but the basics appear to be working.
That wasn't exactly the question. I downloaded the package and did a compile on the source to get the framework. Once that's done, can I get by with just adding the resulting compiled framework to my project? I tried that, but I'm getting some linker errors. It complains about architectures.

Dropbox StaffIf you want to build and add the framework directly, there are a few extra steps you'll need to do. You can find the instructions for that method here:

Please try those out and let us know if you're still running in to any issues. If so, please share the full output you're getting.

You are still not giving me a direct answer. I downloaded the project from GitHub as a zip, compiled the framework, and added the framework to my own project. Should this be adequate? Or do I have to embed it as a subproject to make it work?
- Greg-DBNo, I don't believe that would be sufficient. You'll need to follow the instructions here:
https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-obj-c#manually-add-subprojectAnd therein lies the problem. I don't use repositories, nor do I want to. I've already replaced all my Dropbox support code, updated the info.plist, etc. Why isn't there a simple SDK framwork I can just download, add to my project, and start testing my code without going through all of this?
At this point, I'm so fustrated with it, that if I didn't already have the older Dropbox support in my apps, I would just forget the whole thing. This is taking way too much of my time.
