Name

NSURL — Mac OS X 10.0

Synopsis

NSURL is a class that represents a URL—the human-readable host names and paths that various networking clients use to locate both remote resources over a network, or resources on the local filesystem. Core Foundation has a type, CFURL, that is toll-free bridged to NSURL, and as such the two types can be used interchangeably.
