Hi chainsbomb,
It's not mandatory to use any library or so to access Dropbox API, in spite I cannot imagine what's such an environment that cannot use anything similar. Anyway, the only mandatory thing is ability to perform outgoing HTTPS POST requests to dedicated Dropbox servers. If by any chance this is impossible, then you're not able to perform API calls, otherwise just construct the calls yourself as described in documentation. A bit more hard typing work but that's it. The libraries you're talking about (most probably Dropbox SDK) just make this excessive typing smaller - every such a HTTP request is represented with corresponding method (you can make something similar yourself).
Good luck.

That is the real issue. Without SDK capabilities, it's a bit more work. Thank you, Здравко, for your insight.
