I want to get all the filenames in my application\'s documents folder, and place them in an NSMutableArray. Nothing more, nothing less.
documents
NSMutableArray
There is a convenient method in NSFileManager:
NSFileManager
NSFileManager *fileManager = [[NSFileManager alloc] init]; NSArray *files = [fileManager contentsOfDirectoryAtPath:documentsDirectory error:nil]; ... [fileManager release];
As of ARC you can of course drop the release statement.
