How can I get relative path?


I'm programming on objective-c. I have 3 folders with 3 languages such as en, ru, fr with pictures 1.png, 2.png, 3.png. How can I get relative path for my pictures? How should I add this files in my project? I have some warnings. Its because I have the same name of sources.

My code doesn't work:

CCSprite *button = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/1.png", lang]];

Solution

  • Add your images to your project, that you can call:

    [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"1" ofType:@"png"];
    

    If you add localization to this resource (png image) (in XCode 4 choose image file and in Utility panel (on right hand) you can add different localizations), then in runtime iOS choose properly localized file automatically.
