I am new to iPhone programming. I want to read the content of a text file located in a subfolder of the Resource folder.
The Resource folder structure is the following:
Resource
There are multiple files named "Data.txt", so how can I access the files in each folder? I know how to read the text file, but if the Resource structure is similar to the above structure then how can I get the path?
For example, if I want to access the "Data.txt" file from Folder3, how can I get the file path?
Please suggest.
To continue psychotiks answer a full example would look like this:
NSBundle *thisBundle = [NSBundle bundleForClass:[self class]];
NSString *filePath = nil;
if (filePath = [thisBundle pathForResource:@"Data" ofType:@"txt" inDirectory:@"Folder1"]) {
theContents = [[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:filePath];
// when completed, it is the developer's responsibility to release theContents
}
Notice that you can use -pathForResource:ofType:inDirectory to access ressources in sub directories.
