Sharing files from an iPhone app
<p>I've written an iPhone app that uses <a href="http://code.google.com/p/cocoahttpserver/" rel="nofollow">CocoaHttpServer</a> to share the Documents/ folder of the app. This works very well, and I can list the files over WiFi from my Windows machine using a browser. (eg. <a href="http://192.168.1.4:424242" rel="nofollow">http://192.168.1.4:424242</a> ). The only downside is that users have to save the file from the browser before they can actually use it. </p>

<p>But what I would like to know is if I could make the files appear inside Windows Explorer like the network shares (eg. \\192.168.1.70). What protocol is needed for this case? Is it smb (samba)? </p>

<p>I am also a little confused about Bonjour. Will Bonjour be useful in conjunction with the http server scheme I am using? </p>

<p>My goal is to provide a convenient way for users to access these files from Windows as well as OS X. </p>

<p>Regards</p>
