This is a no-op, since you’re calling two methods that perform inverse operations — `filename` will end up being identical to `name`. The only reason to use the fileSystemRepresentation methods is if you need to convert a filename/path to or from a C string, for example if you’re calling a lower-level API like fopen, or you received a filename from a C string (like a command line argument.) > Before what I was doing is: > NSURL *url = [[self courseDirectory] URLByAppendingPathComponent:name]; That should work fine. If it doesn’t, it’s Apple’s bug not yours. —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
