Discussion of [NSDictionary NSFileSize]

This and the other file... methods are for use with a dictionary such, as those returned from the methodsfileAttributesAtPath:traverseLink: (NSFileManager), directoryAttributes(NSDirectoryEnumerator), and fileAttributes (NSDirectoryEnumerator), that represents the POSIX attributes of a file or directory. This method returns the file’s size.

Special Considerations

If the file has a resource fork, the returned value does not include the size of the resource fork.

Example of [NSDictionary NSFileSize]

NSDictionary *fileAttributes = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] attributesOfItemAtPath:URL error:&attributesError];

NSNumber *fileSizeNumber = [fileAttributes objectForKey:NSFileSize];
long long fileSize = [fileSizeNumber longLongValue];

[directoryContent addObject:[filesDictionary copy]];
}

NSError *error = nil;
NSDictionary *fileAttributes = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] attributesOfItemAtPath:persistentStorePath error:&error];
NSLog(@"Persistent store size: %@ bytes", [fileAttributes objectForKey:NSFileSize]);

NSDictionary *fileSystemAttributes = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] attributesOfFileSystemForPath:persistentStorePath error:&error];
