There's a lot of weird stuff going on in your code... I'm not sure what
the point of most of it is so maybe I'm not reading right. That said,
here is how I'd rewrite what you wrote (I didn't look up the method
return values so I'll assume you did).
NSString *directoryLocation = [@"~/Library/Application Support/DevKit"
stringByExpandingTildeInPath];
NSFileManager *man = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
[man createDirectoryAtPath:directoryLocation attributes:nil] ?
NSLog(@"It worked!") : NSLog(@"It didn't work!");
But to the point, the reason you're getting null is that "%@" means
you're substituting an NSString. You're trying to substitute a boolean
value there. The string you're substituting would be null 'cause its
not a string.

Hi,
I am trying to create a directory in ~/Library/Application Support
called DevKit.
Here is what I have done:
bool i;
NSString *directoryLocation = [[NSString alloc]
initWithFormat:@"~/Library/Application Support/DevKit/"];
[directoryLocation stringByExpandingTildeInPath];
NSFileManager *man = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
i =
NSLog(@"%@", i);
It keeps returning (null). What am i doing wrong?
