I work on Xcode and I have a simple function that opens a file using open
in C.
void mfs_workwith() {
char *token, *temp_token;
char *search = ".";
temp_token = (char*)malloc(sizeof(char)*strlen(cc[1]));
strcpy(temp_token, cc[1]);
if ((token = strtok(temp_token, search)) == NULL) {
printf("mfs_workwith command is only used with mfs type files e.g. example.mfs \n");
} else if ((token = strtok(NULL, " \n\0")) == NULL) {
printf("mfs_workwith command is only used with mfs type files e.g. example.mfs \n");
} else if (strcmp(token, "mfs") == 0) {
filename = malloc(sizeof(char)*strlen(cc[1]));
strcpy(filename, cc[1]);
if ((file_mfs = open(filename, O_RDWR)) == -1) {
perror("open error");
} else {
printf("open successful \n");
}
}
}
The name of the file is stored in a global array and then copied into local buffers in order to tokenize and check if it has the right format (.mfs).
Then if everything is ok I make a fresh copy of the name of the file and call open
with it.
My problem is that when I run my program in terminal it runs fine, prints open successful
and then continues. But when I try to run it in Xcode it fails with this error:
No such file or directory
I am giving the input file.mfs
which is the name of a file in the same directory.
Am I missing something obvious?
