isDirectory is always set to YES even if it's a file and not a directory. I don't know why. Here's the code:

- (NSArray *)listFilesInFolder:(NSString *)apath
{
NSArray *filesList;
NSMutableArray *onlyFiles;
NSString *path;
BOOL isDir;
int i;

NSDirectoryEnumerator *direnum = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] enumeratorAtPath:apath];
filesList = [direnum allObjects];

[self llistarArray:filesList];

for (i=0;i<[filesList count];i++)
{
path = [filesList objectAtIndex:i];
[[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:path isDirectory:&isDir];

if (isDir==false)
{
[onlyFiles addObject:[filesList objectAtIndex:i]];
}
}


	return filesList;
}


In theory in the onlyFiles NSMutableArray should be only files.

Hi! I've been trying to write some code to distinguish between a directory and a file. At first I tried with fileExistsAtPath:isDirectory method thinking that looking at the value of isDirectory will told me what I need. I was wrong.

What part of the byref returned value was wrong?

-[NSFileManager fileAttributesAtPath:traverseLink:] is another way to get the information you’re looking for; check out the docs for the NSFileType key.
