Android Question Storing a db in dropbox and accessing

[gjoisa]

Is it possible to save a database table in dropbox public folder and access it ?

 

[DonManfred]

No.

You can store it on dropbox, download it on appstart, do the changed and upload it back to dropbox.

But you can not access from multiple devices on a db stored on dropbox,googledrive...

Consider using a RDC

Trying to work with RDC and went through the tutorials . But I could not find "jdbc_driver folder" in my PC. I downloaded
Microsoft JDBC Driver 4.0 for SQL Server . But there also I could not find the folder . Where should I find it ?

This folder is inside the extracted files from RDC-Server.zip
It is the folder where to put the needed jar-file to

Extract microsoft jdbc driver. Insider you must find SOMEWHERE a connector.jar (or similar name)... This file you have to copy to the jdbc_driver_folder in your RDC-Folder

OK . I got that jar file . But where is RDC folder ? I am using windows 8 PC . Does it come with default or should I download from net ? If so can you please provide the link ?

Got it ! Thank you . Now got the problem with ip address . I got my system's ip address . but how to get the port id ?

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    If FirstTime Then
        reqManager.Initialize(Me, "http://192.168.0.100:17178")
    End If
End Sub

Is the 17178 is fixed or changes ?

Look at the configurationfiles of the RDC... In one of them, i believe, must be a "listen to port" setting. Change this from 17178 to something other and keep in mind that you have to setup your router to forward the request to the right pc in your network.
