Enable file sharing

append delete UltraFast

Windows 10
Builder version : 3.64

Hello!

My project requires file sharing between Windows and iOS. Specifically, I would like to manually copy files from my Windows Computer to the persistent datapath on my IPhone for my app. I read that I should enable file sharing by setting UIFileSharingEnabled to true in the Info.plist. Maybe I can do this with 3rd party tools or maybe even a text editor, but is this possible through the iOS builder as well?

Hello

As long as you put the right toggle in the Info.plist, your app should be granted this permission. You can (and should) do that with a text editor. There exists Plist editing tools for Windows, but I haven't tried them, a text editor is way sufficient: all is needed is to respect the syntax and close the tags properly.

Plist files can be of different formats, usually in binary format for distribution in compiled apps, but as simple XML files for development, and as such you can edit them with any text editor.

There is no need to “register”, just enter the same name + password of your choice every time.

Pro tip: Use markup to add links, quotes and more.
