My app displays several images on several pages. Since the app displays one page per time, I would like to optimize the memory management at loading and displaying the images. I thought to save my document as filePackage, put the image files within the package and use the lazy
image = [[NSImage alloc] initByReferencingFile:path]; to reference all the images when opening a document. So, I thought, the images get really loaded and displayed at the time I select a given page, and discarded (in the cache) when I change page. Does it really work that way? Second question. In case the user imports a new image, I presume I should immediately copy the image file within the filePackage then call initByReferencingFile. Should I use imgFileWrap = [[NSFileWrapper alloc] initWithURL:url options: NSFileWrapperReadingWithoutMapping error:&err]; [documentFileWrapper addFileWrapper: imgFileWrap]; or should I simply copy the file image within the filePackage with the following? [[NSFileManager defaultManager] copyItemAtPath:src toPath:dst error:nil]; Regards -- Leonardo _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
