We archive our database files and use the following code to name them. We've
been using the same code for about 3 years without any issues but today I have
one user that is exhibiting very strange results. I'm assuming I'm missing
something very basic, simple, but I'm just not seeing it.
Here is the code:
//rename our sqlite file
//basically, we tack on a date & time to the current file name
NSString *fileExtension = [[self coreDataStorePath] pathExtension];
NSDateFormatter *fileArchiveDateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[fileArchiveDateFormat setDateFormat: @"yyyyMMdd_HHmmss"];
NSString *newPath = [[[[self coreDataStorePath] stringByDeletingPathExtension]
stringByAppendingString: [fileArchiveDateFormat stringFromDate:[NSDate date]]]
stringByAppendingPathExtension: fileExtension];
[fileArchiveDateFormat release];
It should result in a filename like this:
"pim20120801_011922.informantdata",
and for every other customer I've ever seen it does. For this one user it gives
me:
"pim20120801_011922 PM_.informantdata",
I don't know where the extra _ is coming from, or where the AM/PM indicator is
coming from. This is the only place in our code where we name these files as my
first thought was I had some rogue code somewhere. I've also double checked the
Apple docs on date formats and pretty sure what we have there is correct.
The [self coreDataStorePath] returns "pim.informantdata", so that is the what
string its starting from (with the /Documents path of course).
Again, I'm pretty certain something simple will help me here - perhaps I need
to
[fileArchiveDateFormat setLocale: [[[NSLocale alloc]
initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"en_US_POSIX"] autorelease]];
? I've also considered adding [fileArchiveDateFormat
setFormatterBehavior:NSDateFormatterBehavior10_4];
I could try it and not bother you fine folk - but this is iOS where I can't
just give the user a build to test for me. I kind of have to "know" and of
course it all works fine for me. I suppose the two things above are at the
least safe to add..
