Am I missing a method specifically intended for path comparison?
Not that I know of. But you are missing the method for
preprocessing them before comparison. Look at:
-[NSString stringByStandardizingPath]
An other way may be to convert them into FSRef (using
FSPathMakeRef()) and then compare them using FSCompareFSRefs()
That's what I use. stringByStandardizingPath doesn't do anything
for case sensitivity, AFAICT.
The big problem is that file systems differ in case sensitivity. For a
start, HFS+ can be configured to be either case sensitive or
insensitive. And OS X does support several other file systems.
