Hey Everyone,
Ive got a small problem here where I am trying to get the size of
file at a path. The problem is when I change the path to a >
pointer(?).
NSDictionary *attributes = [[NSFileManager defaultManager]
fileAttributesAtPath:@"/tmp/somefile" traverseLink:NO];
This works perfectly fine for me however the path to the file is not
static so I am trying this with no luck.
NSString *path = [NSString
stingWithContentsOfFile:@"/tmp/filewithpathinfo"];
NSDictionary *attributes = [[NSFileManager defaultManager]
fileAttributesAtPath:path traverseLink:NO];
NSLog(@"%@", path);
I was just using hte NSLog to check if the path was right and it
reports the right path to the file like /Volumes/backup/somefile
Any thoughts?
Is it really the code you're using ?
This is the actual code I am using. I am a very novice programmer so
please bare with me.
NSString *path = [NSString
stingWithContentsOfFile:@"/tmp/filewithpathinfo"];
and not
NSString *path = [NSString stringWithString:@"/tmp/filewithpathinfo"];
In your code, you're putting the content of the file
/tmp/filewithpathinfo into your string. Does "/tmp/filewithpathinfo"
contain the path of the file?
The content of that file (filewithpathinfo) is the full path to an
actual file.
