NSString stringWithContentsOfFile failing with what seems to be the wrong error code

Question

I\'m trying to load a file into a string. Here is the code I\'m using:

NSError *error = nil;
NSString *fullPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:filename         


        

Answer 1

The most likely reason that +stringWithContentsOfFile:encoding:error: would fail in this case would be if you provided the wrong encoding. Are you sure that your @"eula" file is UTF8 encoded?

If you're unsure about the encoding of the file, you could always try +stringWithContentsOfFile:usedEncoding:error: instead and see if it works and what encoding it comes up with.
