Delphi XE4 iOS app works on simualtor but not on debug device

Question

I have the app showing its designated background image while app loads. It then crashes running this code at startup: ``` // unzip own resources like images, data files ettc. FAppDataDirPath := GetHomePath + PathDelim + Application.Title + '.app' + PathDelim; P := FAppDataDirPath + 'assets.zip'; if FileExists(P) then begin Z := TZipFile.Create; try Z.Open(P, zmRead); Z.ExtractAll(FAppDataDirPath + 'Library'); finally Z.Free; end; end ; ``` This is the error I get:

Accepted Answer

The problem is that you're using the wrong method to get the locations.

Switch to using `System.IOUtils.TPath`, using `TPath.GetHomePath` to get the home folder, `TPath.GetDocumentsPath` for the `Documents` folder, and `TPath.GetLibraryPath` to get the `Library` folder location.
