Re: fileHandleForReadingFromURL:error: vs. fileHandleAsServerAtAddress: ?

[Ivan Vučica]

If you're using HTTP or other URL-based protocol, it does seem that way. Probably works for accessing devices, probably with something like file:///dev/disk0.

You could probably also manually create a file handle using socket(), connect() et al, and then use - (id)initWithFileDescriptor:(int)fileDescriptor or - (id)initWithFileDescriptor:(int)fileDescriptor closeOnDealloc:(BOOL)flag.

Hi,

while porting GSWeb to OSX I came across  fileHandleAsServerAtAddress:... which is a GNUstep extension to NSFileHandle with low level socket stuff;
but meanwhile there is fileHandleForReadingFromURL:error: in OSX. Could this be used instead?
