I need an absolute path.
So I do:
NSFileManager *fima = [ NSFileManager defaultManager ];
NSString *fileType = [ [ fima fileAttributesAtPath: path
traverseLink: NO
]; fileType ];
if ( [ fileType isEqualToString: NSFileTypeSymbolicLink ] )
path = [ fima pathContentOfSymbolicLinkAtPath: path ];
The problem is: "/tmp" is converted to "private/tmp" (Note the
missing
slash at the start).
Well, it's not "converted". In OS X, "/tmp" is a relative symbolic
link.
-[NSFileManager pathContentOfSymbolicLinkAtPath:] calls something like
readlink(2) behind the scenes. So what you get back is the content
of the
link... which is a relative directory name.
Short of hardcoding a change from "private" to "/private" -
is there some Cocoa (or Carbon or bsd or whatever) way to get "/tmp"
converted to "/private/tmp" (with the leading slash) ?
(Same problem exists for /etc and /var).
You can do this:
[[path stringByDeletingLastPathComponent]
stringByAppendingPathComponent:[fima pathContentOfSymbolicLinkAtPath
:path]];
I think that will work.
Not if the link point to an absolute path.
NSString *absolute = [fima pathContentOfSymbolicLinkAtPath:path];
if (![absolute isAbsolutePath])
absolute = [absolute stringByAppendingPathComponent:absolute];
