I went so far as to subclass NSDocumentController, overriding openDocumentWithContentsOfURL:absoluteURL display:error:. I tried many ideas, including closing the document and having NSRunLoop send a message to reopen the document after openDocument had returned. Even with this desperate approach, the document opened as sourceURL~.xml, which was very perplexing.

The resolution is quite strange. I had been setting a break point in the over-ride function, so that I could examine the state of the document after I called super openDocument. I discovered, quite by accident, that if I removed the breakpoint, the document opened as sourceURL, as expected. With the break point: sourceURL~.xml; without the break point: sourceURL.xml. This makes absolutely no sense to me, but it is certainly the case.


If you can demonstrate this in a simple project, it would be a good candidate for a bug report to Apple. You actually have 3 things to report:

1. The above problem.

2. Your original problem, where the wrong file gets opened.

3. A documentation problem, where migration in a NSPersistentDocument context apparently requires some extra code that isn't documented.
