mountedLocalVolumePaths and fileAttributesAtPath strange behavior

Hi,

I have a problem that I have some difficulties sorting out. I have a program where I have registered myself for NSWorkspaceDidMountNotification notifications from NSWorkspace. When I receive such a notification I check what volumes have been mounted by calling [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] mountedLocalVolumePaths].

In another part of the code I am checking for whether a certain file is valid or not depending on certain criteria. I have done that by calling the LSCopyItemInfoForRef routine (preceded by FSPathMakeRef in order to get the FSRef for the file in question which I need for the LSCopyItemInfoForRef call). Now the strange thing is that after the call to FSPathMakeRef I get a NSWorkspaceDidMountNotification notification. When calling mountedLocalVolumePaths as a response to this notification I suddenly have two new volumes, home and net. This corresponds to the two folders /home and /net on the / volume. I cannot understand why they suddenly appear in the list of mounted volumes. I have also tried calling [[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileAttributesAtPath: instead of the combination FSPathMakeRef/ LSCopyItemInfoForRef but this yields the same result. As soon as I remove these lines (either FSPathMakeRef/LSCopyItemInfoForRef or fileAttributesAtPath) everything works fine with no extra volumes home or net.

Does anyone have any idea what is going on here?

Best regards,

Henrik Eliasson
