I am running into a problem that has been discussed occasionally over the
past 6 years, but I can't find a definite solution. It concerns the
"createtextfile" method sometimes returning a NIL object. This occurs
primarily on Mac OS X 10.3.
The code is essentially:
Dim fi as FolderItem
Dim tos as TextOutputStream
fi = GetFolderItem("Temp.html")
tos = fi.CreateTextFile
tos.write "This is a test"
tos.close
It seems to almost always work on OS X 10.4, by the way, and always works on
a Windows machine.
Additional information: the file "Temp.html" exists and I am expecting it to
be overridden. Also, I have added "errNr = fi.LastErrorCode" after the
GetFolderItem line. When the CreateTextFile method fails and returns NIL,
the value of errNr is 104.
Any ideas on what is going on and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Ed
