There are many serious problems with that code. Ignoring the warning, I see: 1) That is not the proper way to find the user's documents folder. < http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/LowLevelFileMgmt/Tasks/LocatingDirectories.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20001279 > 2) You leak an NSString with the output variable. 3) You can't use a "char*" to store the result from encoding with NSUnicodeStringEncoding 4) You can't use strlen() with Unicode characters. 5) "%C" is not the correct format specifier for an ASCII character. 6) That is not the correct way to combine paths. I think you need to stop coding and get some good documents on Unicode and possibly Cocoa memory management. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
