Question

I have this section of code for my app and was wondering how I would be able to add something unique to the end of the file name such as the date so test.png becomes test16102012.png.

    [body appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Content-Disposition: 
form-data; name=\"uploadedfile\"; filename=\"test.png\"\r\n"]     
dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];

Thanks

Matt

By using stringWithFormat: method you can add anything in the string itself.

Example:

[NSString stringWithFormat:@"filename=\"test%@.png\", @"Some_random_string"];

You can also use random generator(arc4random) or a timeIntervalSince1970 method of NSDate class.

Hope it helps
