Aliases with NDAlias not appearing where I tell them to be.

I hope some of you NDAlias users can lend a hand. Everything in the code looks right and everything in the Console looks right but instead of creating an alias on the Desktop, the alias is created next to the compiled program in the xcode project folder.




#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h> #import "Alias.h"

int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {

NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

NSString *fileDirectory = @"~/Documents/DustBin/20110322/152223/";
NSString *fileName = @"myFile.png";
NSString *filePath = [[fileDirectory stringByAppendingString:fileName] stringByExpandingTildeInPath];
NSString *aliasDirectory = [[NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent: @"Desktop"] stringByExpandingTildeInPath];
NSString *aliasName = @"ANewAliasTo_myFile.png";
NSString *aliasPath = [aliasDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent: aliasName];

if( [[NDAlias aliasWithPath:filePath fromPath:aliasDirectory] writeToFile:aliasName] ) {
NSLog(@"Create an alias for...\n\t %@", filePath);
NSLog(@"And placed the alias here...\n\t %@", aliasPath);
} else {
NSLog(@"Alias file creation failed");
}

[pool release];
return 0;
}
