I'm now creating an "image factory" object that will be able to load images from different subfolders within Resources. I started out by setting up my project to place an Images folder within Resources and then have all my images reside in Images. That was the easy part.

I then looked at using NSBundle's pathForResource:ofType:inDirectory:

NSString* theImagePath = [NSBundle pathForResource:aName ofType:nil
inDirectory:[[aBundle resourcePath] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Images"]];


where aName is the root name of some image and aBundle is usually the result of [NSBundle mainBundle].

However, theImagePath is always nil.

Hmm. If I do specify an extension, then my images are loaded. Perhaps pathForResource:ofType:inDirectory: is not meant to work where the ofType param is nil?


I'm going to table this for now as a workaround is to have two blocks of code. The first will attempt to load a resource of type "pdf" (the majority of my images) and if the returned path is nil, try again with a resource of type "tiff".
