Hi All,

I am trying out the AeroGear iOS lib, and trying to achieve client side data persistency employing AeroGear as much as possible. Here are a few questions I have, and I would appreciate any comments, suggestions and/or directions:

- So, starting from the basic question, how can I retrieve my data stores once user leaves the app and comes back (or, can I do this at all)?

there are callbacks for the lifecycle of the app

-Then, what is the difference between "MEMORY" type data store and "PLIST" type one (especially considering my goal is data persistence)?

MEM -> run of the app;

PList -> property list => pers. storage on the file system (sandbox style)

- Or alternatively, considering what AeroGear provides for now, what would be the best approach to implement offline support for the client? (for now, what I know is the lib does not provide DataSync. so data consistency is what I will take care of on my own.)

store PList and use the "Reachability" class (Apple example OR https://github.com/tonymillion/Reachability)

-M

Thanks for your time to read (and to respond). Bests,
