Hi Andy, thank you. Yes, I use stringWithContentsOfURL:encoding:error: and my clients trapped the error. The [error localizedDescription] says it can't reach the file "http//www.mywebsite.com/abc.txt" while on my machine/office I can.
The [[error userInfo] objectForKey:@"NSUnderlyingError"] localizedDescription] on the client's machine is empty while on my machine/office, if I disconnect the wi-fi, I get the error message "This computer¹s Internet connection appears to be offline." My client can quite reach the same file http//www.mywebsite.com/abc.txt using Safari, so I think he has some problem at the ports. To be honest my application appends an info at the end of the url, like this" abc.txt?version=123 when invoking stringWithContentsOfURL:encoding:error Any idea on how to solve this problem? -- Leo > Da: Andy Lee <ag...@mac.com> > Data: Fri, 17 Sep 2010 08:58:29 -0400 > A: "gMail.com" <mac.iphone....@gmail.com> > Cc: <cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com> > Oggetto: Re: Ports for stringWithContentsOfURL > > stringWithContentsOfURL: is deprecated.
