convert .caf file to .wav file with progress bar in ios - iphone

Question

I record audio in .caf format and later need to convert it to .wav in order to upload the file as a dropbox. How can I convert the file to wav format in iOS?
i don't want record audio directly .wav format
how to Convert .CAF to .WAV file
while conversion takes much more time i need to implement conversion
progress bar

Try this
-(void) convertToWav
