Hi, I can properly unzip a zip file launching a NSTask with /usr/bin/unzip The task saves the unzipped file to the disk, then a I read the unzipped file in a NSData. Well. My question is: Can I do the same job without saving the unzipped file to the disk?
I have tried to set the standard output to a pipe - which works well with other tasks - but here it doesn't work. The task never exits. Here's the wrong code: NSTask *unzip = [[[NSTask alloc] init] autorelease]; [unzip setLaunchPath:@"/usr/bin/unzip"]; [unzip setArguments:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"-p", zipfile, @"filetounzip", nil]]; NSPipe *aPipe = [NSPipe pipe]; [unzip setStandardOutput:aPipe]; [unzip launch]; [unzip waitUntilExit]; if([unzip terminationStatus] == noErr){ dictData = [NSMutableData data]; while((dataOut = [aPipe availableData]) && [dataOut length]){ [dictData appendData:dataOut]; } } -- Leo _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
