Question

this is my code

    NSString *myText1 = [NSString stringWithContentsOfFile:storePath];

    NSLog(@"text is %@",myText1);

this gives me 1 now i want to add 2 like 1 and then 2

Answer 1

Use NSFileHandle method seekToEndOfFile and the call to writeData

NSFileHandle *aFileHandle;
NSString *aFile;

aFile = [NSString stringWithString:@"Your File Path"]; //setting the file to write to

aFileHandle = [NSFileHandle fileHandleForWritingAtPath:aFile]; //telling aFilehandle what file write to
[aFileHandle truncateFileAtOffset:[aFileHandle seekToEndOfFile]]; //setting aFileHandle to write at the end of the file

[aFileHandle writeData:[toBeWritten dataUsingEncoding:nil]]; //actually write the data
