Hello, I'm trying to add autosavesInPlace support to my NSDocument-based Application. It supports a read-only type that is internally converted (as suggested in https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Documents/Tasks/FAQ.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20000954-1081265-BAJFDEGD) to my writable type.
The viewer- and editor-roles are set correctly in the application's plist, +writableTypes also returns only what I can write. For reference, I can read .txt and read/write .wowplot. Now, this seems to interact badly with autosavesInPlace: YES. The following happens: 1) I open a document of the read-only type (.txt) 2) I convert this as suggested above to my writable type, using setFileType and setFileURL 3) I modify the document 4) I attempt to close the document 5) Now the autosave-Machinery jumps into action and I get the following error: [ERROR] genstore_storage.c:GSAddPathAsGeneration:980 copyfile "/Volumes/Seerose/Users/maven/Desktop/110720 225338.wowplot" to "/Volumes/Seerose/Users/maven/Library/Autosave Information/2521980F-37BC-4E21-AF6A-001BE638AEFC.genstore.noindex/.genstore_staging/OUyU4Xi/staged" failed with error 2 (No such file or directory) The errors make sense, as the file under that name never existed. Now I'm stuck in-between a rock in a hard place: If I change the type, autosavesInPlace tries to duplicate a non-existent file (because I modified the fileURL); if I don't change the type, NSDocument will ask me to write a file of a type I cannot support. Any ideas? Thanks, Daniel. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
