I created code that uses these new copy routines
(FSCopyObjectAsync), and they work, but they seem to be over
simplified and crippled.
For example, If I'm trying to copy a file that I don't have read
permission for, The API needs to ask the user for the Admin
password, or at least give my app the opportunity to handle this
case. Currently, I only see two modes. Fail on any error, or just
skip any files that are not copyable. These two modes are
completely useless for a real world app.
At last years WWDC they said these were the same routines used by
the Finder. That doesn't seem possible unless I'm missing
something. There's no documentation yet.
Can we get the "real" file copy APIs the Finder uses? This is bull
$hit.
Dunno and don't care what Finder uses, but "the real file copy API"
-- at least far as Cocoa (this list's subject) is concerned -- is, of
course, the NSWorkspace
performFileOperation:source:destination:files:tag: with
NSWorkspaceCopyOperation :)))
