Dynamic Trackables

Is there a way to load Trackables dynamically? Can I specify the location of the config.xml and the qcar-resources.dat files?
Currently the trackable files must be present in the assets folder at compile time and cannot be changed at runtime. We are considering dynamic loading of trackable files for future versions of the SDK.

Hi,
How about overwriting the trackable file with a new image? For example, having a limited number of trackables in the application (say 5), and once you need a sixth, you just overwrite the oldest one with the new one, keeping the name of the file. Would that work?
I was just messing around with the sdk, and tell me if I'm wrong, but on iOS just by moving a qcar-resources.dat and the config.xml file from the application bundle directory to the application documents or library directory would make them half-easier to update.
Well, to be completely honest, I didn't actually try the Android version, but I messed around in the file system of the iPhone after installing my application, and the config.xml and resources dat files are in the main bundle folder location.
could you please tell me whether dynamic trackables are possible in 1.5.8.... I am currently developing a project in which i need to call image data dynamically...is it possible....
The Vuforia Web Service will enable Trackable Datasets to be generated and retrieved programmatically. This service is currently in private beta and the public introduction of services has not yet been announced.
This is irrelevant to the post but could u please help me out in building a sample app which opens a UIView when image is detected. I have referred to all the posts related to this but unable to make anything working.

Hi junkieHead,
My suggestion is to get familiar with all the samples first in order to understand the workflow - unfortunately there is no shortcut ;)

Dear NalinS,
Thanx for your reply. I will surely try the UIView popup thing.
