Fritz, Maybe I didn't post my question at the right time. The latest question that went under the pile of messages about lockless thread-safe accessor from blocks and other UI stuff was this one: Is it normal that NSFileManager's isDeletableFileAtPath: returns YES for a locked file? Based on the result it returns, when I try to send it a removeItemAtPath:error:, it fails and the error localized description is '“This is a test.docx” couldn’t be removed because you don’t have permission to access it.'. That seems wrong to me. First, isDeletableFileAtPath: shouldn't return YES for a locked file. Not a big problem. I can check if it's writable at path and if it's not, then I know the delete won't work but I was wondering if this was the expected behavior for NSFileManager isDeletableFileAtPath: ... -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat/Skype:LaurentDaudelin http://www.nemesys-soft.com/ Logiciels Nemesys Software laur...@nemesys-soft.com _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
