Create a File Mobilization Service #162

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Implement a service for mobilizing files especially large files. Small to 
medium files can be handled just fine using the Sync Framework and byte[] 
arrays in the Mobile Beans.

For large files we need a new service. The service will have the following 
capabilities:

 * Use of streaming technology for end-to-end file transfer

* A simple version management framework

Will this enable storage on file system in addition to (or perhaps instead of 
for large files) db blob?

This service should also make syncing optional. It should give user option of 
whether a file should be automatically replaced if new version is available or 
to just notify user and let him/her decide if wanted on local device. This 
should device-specific but choice on one should ideally be enforced on other 
devices. Like a "favorites" function.
