Using the exact string above, this works fine for me: char *cp = "/Users/me/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/4.2/Applications/58BD5465-FD47-49E3-83AC-242961559F48/Library/Caches/4320_th.jpg"; NSString *s = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] stringWithFileSystemRepresentation:cp length:strlen(cp)]; NSLog(@"cp is [%s]", cp); NSLog(@"s is [...@]", s); I get: 2010-10-26 08:02:23.877 Scratcho[3862:a0f] cp is [/Users/me/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/4.2/Applications/58BD5465-FD47-49E3-83AC-242961559F48/Library/Caches/4320_th.jpg] 2010-10-26 08:02:23.878 Scratcho[3862:a0f] s is [/Users/me/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/4.2/Applications/58BD5465-FD47-49E3-83AC-242961559F48/Library/Caches/4320_th.jpg] Show us your exact code. Is your C string null-terminated? Does strlen() return the number of characters you'd expect? Try logging the C string as I did above (I put the square brackets around it to make sure I spot any leading or trailing whitespace). I ran my code in a Cocoa app, not the iPhone simulator, but offhand I can't think of a reason that NSFileManager method would be different on the two platforms. --Andy _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
