NSFileManager - getting list of "safe" files/folders


  • Subject: NSFileManager - getting list of "safe" files/folders
  • From: Duncan Campbell <email@hidden>

If I use something like:

 NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
  NSArray *array = [fileManager directoryContentsAtPath:fullPath]

I can get an array of files/folders from any path.

If I do this with "/", I get lots of files & folders that I perhaps "shouldn't" see - i.e. terminal would list them, but Finder doesn't (folders like "automount" and "cores" and files like "mach.sym" and "mach_kernel"   ).

Is there a way for me to filter out these folders to replicate the list that Finder gives me?

Cheers for any help.

D.
