ini files in xcode

[DaveC]

hey guys.. So I've added a basic level saving feature to my game using the ini object, it works perfectly! when testing in windows it saves the file to that default folder (the one in user>apps data or something). I'm just wondering where it saves it to when I test in Xcode? It is definitely saving and reading to the ini file, but I can't find it anywhere :/ I think I read that it gets saved to the projects resources folder.. but it's definitely not in there!?

If you're using the simulator this will help: http://idevhub.com/where-is-the-ipho...system-stored/

thanks.. one of the user comments in that link mentioned that in Lion OS this folder is hidden.. and I need to use terminal to gain access to it.. shouldn't be a problem. But why does my app not store the .ini file in the project folder of my xcode project? it does for some peoples projects?

Hi DaveC, you can read the post you write INI files and see if I can help. Not know what else to do and I have the app ready for upload to the app store. Thanks in advance!!!

When you run the application on the device, the INI file is saved in the folder of the application. So if you want to revert to the original INI files that you included in the project, detroy the application on the device. I recap how INI (and list/combo/array) works for loading and saving:
- It first looks in the Application folder for the file. If found there it uses it
- Then it looks in the binary files included in the app
- Then it looks in the project itsef for included files

When saving, it saves in the application folder. So if you modify your INI, the modified version will always be used unless you destroy the app folder.

Francois, but I submitted a bug when I read the INI for the first time I locate myself in the Xcode project I try to publish on the topic above.
