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];
}
}
