I am building application that required some data from iPhone's Call log(read only). The call log is a sqlite db located at "*/User/Library/CallHistory/call_history.db*". I used a jailbroken device to extract the log. However trying to open this location using the *sqlite_open3()* command I get a *SQLITE_ERROR* error, which according to the library documentation means "SQL error or missing database". In an attempt to debug the error I've used NSFileManager to enumerate the folder('/User/Library/'). It would appear as if it's returning a "filtered" set of results, that exclude the 'CallHistory' folder along with several of the other folders.
The File system uses a series of alias to give the illusion of tradition OS X file structure, and I don't know if these are having an effect on my results.
The call log is only present on a device, and not the simulator. I've been unable to get it to work on a 1st gen iPhone running fireware 2.1.
This is some code I used to test the output
NSDirectoryEnumerator *dirnum = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] enumeratorAtPath: @"/private/var/mobile/Library/"];
while( bar = [dirnum nextObject])
{
//Uncomment if you don't want to log sub folders
//[dirnum skipDescendents];
NSLog(bar);
}
I have a suspicion that Apple is blocking access to the directory as part of its sandboxing strategy, however I have no proof at this stage. However, I can access the address book without any issues, so I'm a little confused.
Thanks
