I have noticed that Apple has changed the behavior of FindFolder().
I think the change came with 10.4.
My problem is that the TemporaryItems folder isn't recreated by
FindFolder() if the Temporary Items folder is deleted.
In 10.4.x it won't. In 10.3.6 it does. I think it worked in 10.3.9
as well but after one of the Security patches I suspect that 10.3.9
beahves as 10.4.x regarding this issue.
What I do test this:
FindFolder(kTemporaryFolderType);
Use the folder for something.
Delete the temporary folder manually.
Execute FindFolder(kTemporaryFolderType); //Here FindFolder()
return NoErr
but it does'nt create the folder as it i supposed to do, and did
in 10.3.6.
Note that if I quit my test app and launch it again FindFolder()
will create the folder.
It looks like an app only can create the temporary folder once and
once only.
I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I have missed something in the
documentation.
It's not a bug, but a caching issue that's been discussed here in the
past. This is the code I use. I seem to recall that I ask for the
chewable items folder because it gets emptied at different times than
the temp items folder, but the issue is the same.
