Body
copied!<p>I'm working on an app for jailbroken iPhones. I'm trying to get only the directories of an folder. so I'm doing this: </p> <pre><code>NSArray *contentOfFolder = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] directoryContentsAtPath:path]; NSLog(@"contentOfFolder: %@", contentOfFolder); directoriesOfFolder = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:100]; for (NSString *aPath in contentOfFolder) { NSLog(@"apath: %@", aPath); BOOL isDir; if ([[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:aPath isDirectory:&isDir] &&isDir) { [directoriesOfFolder addObject:aPath]; NSLog(@"directoriesOfFolder %@", directoriesOfFolder); } } NSLog(@"dirctories %@", directoriesOfFolder); </code></pre> <p>but look at what I get. when I get the content of the folder everything looks fine:</p> <p>2009-07-28 23:23:35.930 Drowser[573:207] new path /private/var 2009-07-28 23:23:35.945 Drowser[573:207] contentOfFolder: ( Keychains, "Managed Preferences", MobileDevice, backups, cache, db, ea, empty, folders, lib, local, lock, log, logs, mobile, msgs, preferences, root, run, spool, stash, tmp, vm )</p> <p>but then:</p> <p>2009-07-28 23:23:35.950 Drowser[573:207] apath: Keychains 2009-07-28 23:23:35.954 Drowser[573:207] apath: Managed Preferences 2009-07-28 23:23:35.959 Drowser[573:207] apath: MobileDevice 2009-07-28 23:23:35.984 Drowser[573:207] apath: backups 2009-07-28 23:23:35.993 Drowser[573:207] apath: cache 2009-07-28 23:23:36.002 Drowser[573:207] apath: db 2009-07-28 23:23:36.011 Drowser[573:207] apath: ea 2009-07-28 23:23:36.019 Drowser[573:207] apath: empty 2009-07-28 23:23:36.028 Drowser[573:207] apath: folders 2009-07-28 23:23:36.037 Drowser[573:207] apath: lib 2009-07-28 23:23:36.046 Drowser[573:207] directoriesOfFolder ( lib )</p> <p>only "lib"! is recognized as folder. how can that be? the others are folders too. I confirmed it via SSH.</p> <p>does anyone have an idea? Am I doing something wrong?</p>
