hello everyone, there is a problem about the file path.
I want to generate a NSImage instance with the method:
- initByReferencingFile:(NSString *) filename;
If I want to use the relative path, for example : I add a .png file
to my project, then How should I use the png file: juse use the
relative path or the absolute path?
It seems that the absolute path is not the adoptable method to
solve the problem. But if to use the relative path, what path
should I refer: the path linking to my project?
Relative paths are not an option, because the base path to which they
relate is unreliable. When you start your app from xCode, the base
path is the build directory, when you start it from Finder it's "/",
and when you start it with an "open" command from a shell prompt it's
the shell environment's current working directory.
If you've added foo.png to your project, it'll be copied into the
Resources/ directory in your .app bundle, and you can create an
NSImage from it with [NSImage imageNamed:@"foo.png"].
