Hey guys, I am trying to get the path that an NSDocument is being saved to at save time. I tried overriding writeToURL but that would pass me an obscure temp file URL, which was not where it was getting saved. Also asking the document like this [document fileURL] only works after it has been saved. I can get the path when it is loaded but I need some way for that initial save. Is there a way I can get the real file path when an NSDocument is saved?

It would really help if you told us more about why you want this.
That said, the lowest level method with this information is -writeSafelyToURL:ofType:forSaveOperation:error:

Can I override this instead of writeToURL?

Yes, hence why I mentioned it. Overriding `-saveToURL:ofType:forSaveOperation:error:` should do the job best I imagine.

@Mike Abdullah Ok thanks, sorry I was just making sure because I thought it might be something I would have to override in addition to it.
