Large file streaming downloads fail

[karnlund]

When using the streaming get method to download a 2.6 gigabyte sized file, LRResty fails with out of memory errors, because it is not releasing each block of data after it is passed to the onData block. I would like to stream the data to an NSFileHandle that is opened for writing.

- (void)restyClientWillPerformRequest:(LRRestyClient *)client {
    [[NSFileManager defaultManager] createFileAtPath:[self archiveFilePath]
                                            contents:nil
                                          attributes:nil];
    self.fh = [NSFileHandle fileHandleForWritingAtPath: [self archiveFilePath]];
}

- (void)requestDataFile {
    [[LRResty client] setDelegate:self];
    [[LRResty client] get:[self archiveURL]
                                  onData:^(NSData *data, BOOL *cancel) {
                                      [fh writeData:data];
                                  } onError:^(NSError *error) {
                                      [fh closeFile];
                                  }
}

Let me know if this doesn't solve your problem.
