[Pyobjc-dev] Using pathForResource_

[David C. <da...@ne...>]

Right now I am using an absolute path to reference my icons... naturally I
want to change things so the icons are a resource in the project.  I have
moved the files into the project and added them to the copy phase.

I think I should be able to do something like this --

no_tunnel_image = NSBundle.mainBundle.pathForResource_ofType_inDirectory_(
"no_tunnels", "png", '' )

-- but I consistently get this error --

2003-01-11 13:16:51.664 NewTunnels[2990] Exception raised during posting of
notification.  Ignored.  exception: 'objc.native_selector' object has no
attribute 'pathForResource_ofType_inDirectory_'

-- I have also tried just 'pathForResource_' and a few other permutations
unsuccessfully.

Ideas?
David.

You're almost there, try this:

   NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource_of_Type_inDirectory_(...)

Hm.  That did change the error message, but still no luck.  The line --

image = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource_of_Type_inDirectory_(
'no_tunnels.png', 'png', '' )

-- produces the error message --

2003-01-11 20:58:28.903 NewTunnels[3208] Exception raised during posting of
notification.  Ignored.  exception: No attribute
pathForResource_of_Type_inDirectory_

-- I am importing NSBundle from Foundation... which is the only one I know
of.  I can find the pathForResource call in the Cocoa help, but I must still
be missing something.

Thanks,
David.

You need to literally replace the ':' in the method name with '_'.

I.e. NSBundle's method...

     pathForResource:ofType:inDirectory:

... becomes ...

     pathForResource_ofType_inDirectory_()

So:

      
NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource_ofType_inDirectory_('no_tunnels.pn 
g', 'png', '')

But that won't work either.  You probably want:

     NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource_ofType_('no_tunnels', 'png')

Or:

     NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource_ofType_('no_tunnels.png',  
None)
