Once it’s loaded using that, you can’t. The file name is only used to load the data into memory. After that, it becomes irrelevant.
If you need to maintain the file name, then perhaps you need to make a class with the filename (as an
NSStringorNSURL, perhaps) and the image data (as anNSImageorNSDataobject) as ivars. I’m not sure what your application is, so I can’t give you any architectural advice at this point.
