Saving NSString to file
- by Michael Amici
I am having trouble saving simple website data to file. I believe the sintax is correct, could someone help me? When I run it, it shows that it gets the data, but when i quit and open up the file that it is supposed to save to, nothing is in it.
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)nextField {
[timer invalidate];
startButton.hidden = NO;
startButton.enabled = YES;
stopButton.enabled = NO;
stopButton.hidden = YES;
stopLabel.hidden = YES;
label.hidden = NO;
label.text = @"Press to Activate";
[nextField resignFirstResponder];
NSString *urlString = textField.text;
NSData *dataNew = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]];
NSUInteger len = [dataNew length];
NSString *stringCompare = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%i", len];
NSLog(@"%@", stringCompare);
NSString *filePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"websiteone" ofType:@"txt"];
if (filePath) {
[stringCompare writeToFile:filePath atomically:YES encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:NULL];
NSString *myText = [NSString stringWithContentsOfFile:filePath encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:NULL];
NSLog(@"Saving... %@", myText);
}
else {
NSLog(@"cant find the file");
}
return YES;
}
