I use vfr/reader to open PDF files. When I open first PDF file my app opens it correctly but when I open another one, my app opens the first file again.
This is my function to read PDF file
-(void)readIssue:(IssueMath *)issue {
NSString *filePath = [[issue.contentURL path] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Mathematics.pdf"];
NSLog(@"Read Path 1: %@ ",filePath);
ReaderDocument *document = [ReaderDocument withDocumentFilePath:filePath password:nil];
NSLog(@"Read Path 2: %@ ",document.fileURL);
ReaderViewController *readerViewController = [[ReaderViewController alloc] initWithReaderDocument:document];
readerViewController.delegate = self; // Set the ReaderViewController delegate to self
readerViewController.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve;
readerViewController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFullScreen;
[self presentModalViewController:readerViewController animated:YES];
}
And this is NSLog output:
2012-11-02 20:09:31.081 MAGAZINE[314:15203] Read Path 1: /Users/eakmotion/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.0/Applications/EC25BC08-E1E7-44B6-9AD8-0A321EEAC8B6/Library/Caches/ISSUE3_2011/Mathematics.pdf
2012-11-02 20:09:31.109 MAGAZINE[314:15203] Read Path 2: file://localhost/Users/eakmotion/Library/Application%20Support/iPhone%20Simulator/5.0/Applications/EC25BC08-E1E7-44B6-9AD8-0A321EEAC8B6/Library/Caches/ISSUE2_2011/Mathematics.pdf
I want to read "ISSUE3_2011/Mathematics.pdf" but app still reads first path "ISSUE2_2011/Mathematics.pdf"
Why filePath is still the same?
How can I solve this problem?
Yeah your solution works but if you want to keep track of your all pdf documents (ex. current page no)
You have to give unique names for your local pdf files.. Because it will search for Mathematics.plist file on local device folder to read the current page number..
/Users/eakmotion/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.0/Applications/EC25BC08-E1E7-44B6-9AD8-0A321EEAC8B6/Library/Caches/ISSUE3_2011/Mathematics.pdf
file://localhost/Users/eakmotion/Library/Application%20Support/iPhone%20Simulator/5.0/Applications/EC25BC08-E1E7-44B6-9AD8-0A321EEAC8B6/Library/Caches/ISSUE2_2011/Mathematics.pdf
these files are looking for the same Mathematics.plist file in the class ReaderDocument "unarchiveFromFileName" method
NSString *archivePath = [ReaderDocument applicationSupportPath]; // Application's "~/Library/Application Support" path
NSString *archiveName = [[filename stringByDeletingPathExtension] stringByAppendingPathExtension:@"plist"];
try to modify this code section or give your files unique names like Mathematics_ISSUE3_2011.pdf and Mathematics_ISSUE2_2011.pdf
