I have an app in which the app bundle contains an image file (I mean that the file is dragged into XCode and appears in “Other Sources”), and I am using code like:

[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Auto" ofType:@"jpg"]

to get a path to the image.

I found that when running on a device (iPod Touch), the name is case-sensitive, so that if the file is “Auto” and I use “AUTO”, the poath returned is “file://(null)”. However on the simulator, if I use “AUTO”, it works the same as if I use “Auto”.

I am thinking that the fact that the simulator has such a clear difference in behavior from the device is a bug. Do the more experienced users out there think that it is, and that I should report it to Apple?

Thanks.

    I am thinking that the fact that the simulator has such a clear difference in behavior from the device is a bug.

    In general, this does not necessarily indicate a bug.

    Do the more experienced users out there think that it is, and that I should report it to Apple?

    Yes. But the bug has nothing to do with the device at all. Specifically, the bug is simply “Simulator file paths are not case-sensitive”. If you can reproduce this in a “sandbox” project, do so, and submit it along with your bug report.
