Dear all,
I would like to programmatically copy files with
system([[NSString stringWithFormat:@"cp -r %@ %@", sourcePath,
destPath] cString]);
or alternatively using NSFileManager. This works as long as sourcePath
does not contain special characters like ä,ö,ü,...
In a terminal shell I can successfully copy such a file by typing
cp "Germ
and then using TAB to automatically complete the path to
cp "German Fa\314\210hrhaus.jpeg" /home/ahoesch/A00
The question for me now is where this magic \314\210 stuff comes from
and how I can do the conversion in my GNUstep app programmatically
before building the copy command.
system([[NSString stringWithFormat:@"cp -r %@ %@", [sourcePath
magicMethod], destPath] cString]);
Hints are greatly appreciated!
The method you are looking for is [NSFileManager
fileSystemRepresentationWithPath:], but don't expect to much, it relies
on [NSString defaultCStringEncoding].
