iPhone : Transfer of files from Mac/Pc to app

Question

I need to transfer binary files from my pc/mac to my app. I want to allow my users to upload sound files. Am i going to have to run a web server that the user can connect to over wifi?

What are the steps i have to go through to get this up and running?

Answer 1

In my apps, I use the open-source cocoahttdserver. It is quite trivial to setup in your app and connect to from a computer using the same network. They have an iPhone sample project that you can pretty much cut and paste from for basic functionality.
