Hi Al,
Thanks for all help but unfortunately the problem still persists.With the
below code the data is not null but when I write to a file I don't get
anything.
I have used the following for writing [data writeToFile:@"/tmp/station.pls"
atomically:YES]; but the file size remains zero.
Also I tried printing [NSApp presentError:error]; even when the data is not
null and I get "-[NSAlert alertWithError:] called with nil NSError. A
generic error message will be displayed, but the user deserves better.".
Is it something silly I am doing?
Thanks in advance
NSError *error; NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL
URLWithString:@"http://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls?id=9907";]];
NSData *data = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request
returningResponse:nil error:&error];
if (!data) [NSApp presentError:error];
-A
