I have file test.pdf in my Application Bundle. I run test in iPhone Simulator (iPad) and I cannot get the CGPDFDocumentRef populated. Am I going crazy or what?!?
here is a piece of code from the sample application made especially for this (ViewController class):
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// below code to show files in app bundle...
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath];
NSFileManager *fm = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSError *error = [[NSError alloc] init];
NSArray *directoryAndFileNames = [fm contentsOfDirectoryAtPath:path error:&error];
//just to make sure the file is there : (test.pdf)
for (NSString *ts in directoryAndFileNames) {
NSLog(ts); // NSLog confirms the file is there
}
//Function below is supposed to create the CDPDFDocumentRef
[self updatePageRef]; // try to get the CGPDFDocumentRef
}
-(BOOL)updatePageRef {
NSLog(@"Updating PAGE");
NSString *pdfStringURL = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"test" ofType:@"pdf"];
NSURL *pdfURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:pdfStringURL];
NSLog([pdfURL path]); // this is good
NSLog(@"File Exists = %d", [[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:pdfStringURL]); // this gives me 1 (YES)
pdf = CGPDFDocumentCreateWithURL((CFURLRef)pdfURL);
//from here on the pdf is nil??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if (pdf && CGPDFDocumentGetNumberOfPages(pdf) > 0) {
return YES;
}
return NO;
}
Above the pdf is declared in the @interface as CGPDFDocumentRef pdf;
I know the PDF file is good, because I have opened it successfully in 'preview'.
Everything compiles and runs without any warnings nor errors.
Help!
