Hello All,
I finally fixed the path issue using the following code with
'lastObject' to handle the different arguments count:
NSArray *arguments = [[NSProcessInfo processInfo] arguments];
// Check if there are any arguments passed
if ([arguments count] > 1) {
NSString *filePath = [arguments lastObject]; // The first
argument is
the file path
[self openWithPath: filePath];
}

Hello All,
SaveLink app is not yet complete.
The 'open' method called from the command menu is working.
Also I improved the code using more specific Path handle methods:
NSString *nameLink = [[openPath lastPathComponent]
stringByDeletingPathExtension];
But I must handle now the case when a '.url' file is selected and
opened by
SaveLink from the 'open-With' menu of GWorkspace to be edited.
So:
- I declared a new method: '(void) openWithPath: (NSString *)
pathFile';
- I tried to call 'openWithPath:' from 'awakeFromNib' like this:
NSLog(@"Enter...");
NSArray *arguments = [[NSProcessInfo processInfo] arguments];
// Check if there are any arguments passed
if ([arguments count] > 1) {
NSString *filePath = [arguments objectAtIndex:1];
NSLog(@"File to open: %@", filePath);
[self openWithPath: filePath];
}
NSLog(@"Out...");
}
It is working as expected from a Terminal Shell with: 'openapp
SaveLink
someFile.url'.
But nothing happens if I use the 'openWith' menu with the same file
within
the FileViewer of GWorkspace. Even the app is not launching at all.
Here is the method:
- (void) openWithPath: (NSString *)pathFile;
{
// Get Name of the Link
NSString *fileName = [[pathFile lastPathComponent]
stringByDeletingPathExtension];
[name setStringValue: fileName];
// Get Link value
NSString *content;
content = [NSString stringWithContentsOfFile: pathFile];
NSString *url = [content substringFromIndex: 23];
[link setStringValue: url];
[savebutton setEnabled:YES];
}
Do you think we must handle a different count of args with 'openWith'
menu
case?
I answer myself: yes, the arguments count differs and the 'lastObject'
method was the solution.
Best regards,
Patrick
