icloud备份,这个东西比较烦人,但从用户的角度,好多东西确实没必要备份。
Apps must follow the iOS Data Storage Guidelines or they will be rejected
2.23
We found that your app does not follow the iOS Data Storage Guidelines, which is required per the App Store Review Guidelines.
In particular, we found that on launch and/or content download, your app stores 13.4 MB. To check how much data your app is storing:
- Install and launch your app
- Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage
- If necessary, tap "Show all apps"
- Check your app's storage
The iOS Data Storage Guidelines indicate that only content that the user creates using your app, e.g., documents, new files, edits, etc., may be stored in the /Documents directory - and backed up by iCloud.
Temporary files used by your app should only be stored in the /tmp directory; please remember to delete the files stored in this location when the user exits the app.
Data that can be recreated but must persist for proper functioning of your app - or because customers expect it to be available for offline use - should be marked with the "do not back up" attribute. For NSURL objects, add the NSURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey attribute to prevent the corresponding file from being backed up. For CFURLRef objects, use the corresponding kCFURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey attribute.
For more information, please see Technical Q&A 1719: How do I prevent files from being backed up to iCloud and iTunes?.
It is necessary to revise your app to meet the requirements of the iOS Data Storage Guidelines.

How do I prevent files from being backed up to iCloud and iTunes?
Q: My app has a number of files that need to be stored on the device permanently for my app to function properly offline. However, those files do not contain user data and don't need to be backed up. How can I prevent them from being backed up?
A: On iOS, apps are responsible for ensuring that only user data and not application data is backed up to iCloud and iTunes. The exact steps necessary vary between iOS version, so this QA will describe the process for each version of iOS. For more information on exactly what data should or should not be backed up, see the App Backup Best Practices section of the iOS App Programming Guide.
Important: Apps should avoid mingling app data and user data in the same file. Doing so will unnecessarily increase backup sizes and can be considered a violation of the iOS Data Storage Guidelines.
iOS 5.1 and later
Starting in iOS 5.1, apps can use either NSURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey orkCFURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey file properties to exclude files from backups. Either of these APIs is preferred over the older, deprecated approach of directly setting an extended attribute. All apps running on iOS 5.1 should use these APIs to exclude files from backups.

{ |
assert([[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath: [URL path]]); |

} |
return success; |

iOS 5.0.1
If your app must support iOS 5.0.1, you can use the following method to set the "do not back up" extended attribute. Whenever you create a file or folder that should not be backed up, write the data to the file and then call this method, passing in a URL to the file.
Warning: The code that follows has been deprecated and should only be used on iOS 5.0.1 or earlier. When running in iOS 5.1, apps should use the NSURL
and CFURL
keys described above.

#import |
- (BOOL)addSkipBackupAttributeToItemAtURL:(NSURL *)URL |
{ |
assert([[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath: [URL path]]); |
const char* filePath = [[URL path] fileSystemRepresentation]; |
const char* attrName = "com.apple.MobileBackup"; |
u_int8_t attrValue = 1; |
int result = setxattr(filePath, attrName, &attrValue, sizeof(attrValue), 0, 0); |
return result == 0; |
} |
iOS 5.0
It is not possible to exclude data from backups on iOS 5.0. If your app must support iOS 5.0, then you will need to store your app data in Caches
to avoid that data being backed up. iOS will delete your files from the Caches
directory when necessary, so your app will need to degrade gracefully if it's data files are deleted.
