Sorry for being late here. I noticed a bug with the implementation of the 10.5+ NSWorkspace methods -filenameExtension:isValidForType:, -preferredFilenameExtensionForType:, and -typeOfFile:error:. These methods are supposed to work with UTIs as file types, but the current implementation uses filename extensions instead of them, which certainly is wrong. I'm not so sure about the correct fix, however. I think since we don't support UTIs at present, the best is simply to go down the error path everywhere, i.e., - (BOOL) filenameExtension: (NSString *)filenameExtension isValidForType: (NSString*)typeName { // FIXME // We don't support UTIs yet => can't determine whether extension is valid return NO; } - (NSString *) preferredFilenameExtensionForType: (NSString *)typeName { // FIXME // We don't support UTIs yet => can't determine the preferred extension return nil; } - (NSString *) typeOfFile: (NSString *)absoluteFilePath error: (NSError **)outError { // FIXME // We don't support UTIs yet => can't determine the file's type if (outError) { *outError = nil; } return nil; } This certainly gives less meaningful results than the current implementation, but prevents confusing document types and file extensions in the next release, which probably will stay around for a while :-) Wolfgang _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
