NSURLConnection get URL

Question

Hi, how i get the URL inside the following method ??

- (void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection*)theConnection 

Answer 1

You ought to be able to do theConnection.request.URL, but you can't. Annoying, isn't it?

The simplest way is to just save the URL (or the whole NSURLRequest) that you were loading. If you're using multiple connections, you can store them in a dictionary. Note that -[NSMutableDictionary setObject:forKey:] copies keys, and NSURLConnections are not copyable; the workaround is to use CFDictionarySetValue instead:

CFDictionarySetValue((CFMutableDictionaryRef)dict, connection, request);
