Declaration
- (BOOL)fileManager:(NSFile Manager *)fileManager shouldProceedAfterError:(NSError *)error linkingItemAtPath:(NSString *)srcPath toPath:(NSString *)dstPath;
Parameters
fileManager
The file manager object that attempted to create the link.
error
The error that occurred during the link attempt.
srcPath
The path to the attempted link location.
dstPath
The path to the file or directory that was the destination of the hard link.
Return Value
YES
if the operation should proceed or NO
if it should be aborted. If you do not implement this method, the file manager assumes a response of NO
.
Discussion
The file manager calls this method when there is a problem creating a hard link to the item at the specified location. If you return YES
, the file manager continues creating any other links associated with the current operation and ignores the error.
This method performs the same task as the file
method, which is preferred over this method in macOS 10.6 and later.
