macOS Does copyPath works for Path of VolumeName?

[imranpundeer]

HI Friends,
I am trying to copy a file using copyPath API of NSFileManager. The destination path is a Network path, But i want to give URL path to destination path not

/Volume/Sharefoldername

.
But it doesn't work for URL path(

smb://10.112.42.26/Sharefoldername

).

Any idea or help would be appriciated.

Regards,
Shadab

The URL is not a path: it's a URL. You must pass a valid, Unix path.

That is not a path. There is no generic way to turn that into a Unix path. You need to know where it is mounted to. As you suggest in your first post in Mac OSX it tends to be /Volumes/<share name> but a user could manually (via the command line) mount to any path. You need to find an API (and I don't know what the correct API is) that can tell you where the share is mounted.
