Re: NSTemporaryDirectory() and security



Thanks everyone.

Yes, the story is that a user of the product (IT professional) complained because were were writing to the /private/var/tmp/folders. 501/TemporaryItems/ via NSTemporaryDirectory(). I was attempting to confirm that this is the standard method and that it is generally what other Cocoa developers do. This seems to be the case. As an IT professional myself, I can sorta see the complaint. On the other hand, with proper permissions, it seems like a non-issue.

thanks,
