Jeff,
Thanks for the response. That is not an acceptable solution for us. I
had already implemented one hack where I check for a .plist extension
because one of my users installed Yahoo Chat which took over plist
files that I was downloading and NSURLDownload was turning them
into .plist.ychat files. Here is my solution
NSString *extension = [name pathExtension];
NSString *newName = [name stringByDeletingPathExtension];
while(!IsEmpty([newName pathExtension]))
{
extension = [newName pathExtension];
newName = [newName stringByDeletingPathExtension];
}
newName = [newName stringByAppendingPathExtension:extension];
// set downloadPath here
[download setDestination:downloadPath allowOverwrite:YES];
That works fine. What is really needed is some switch to turn off the
filename modification.
Thanks
Marc

Hi Marc.
Unfortunately, this is an Apple bug.
What Content-Type does the server return, and can you control that?
If so, then you can work around the bug by returning a custom
Content-Type that isn't recognized by other applications.

Hi All,
I have searched and can't find an answer to this. I am using
NSURLDownload in an internal application. I connect to a server and
download some files. Many times, the file name gets changed. I
download file.xslt but the download system turns it into
"file.xslt.xml" and then my app can't find it. Is there any way of
preventing that?
I modified my download delegate to check for known file types and
fix the name but new types are showing up so that's not a good
solution. What I am doing now is, in
download:decideDestinationWithSuggestedFilename:, to keep checking
for an extension and then put the last one back on so I can keep
the original filename. That seems kind of hackish but I don't know
another way to do it.
Thanks a lot
Marc
