iphone - Do you need to delete imported files from Documents/Inbox? -
i've got ios app imported files email attachment. i've noticed once i'm finished it places imported file documents/inbox.
should app deleting these files or os around clearing them out?
if so, how? i've tried:
[[nsfilemanager defaultmanager] removeitematpath:[self.url path] error:nil];
however doesn't seem reference file in inbox, though self.url correct path import file.
system not clear imported files, should clear them manually when necessary, not delete documents directory.

from apple doc:
use directory access files app asked open outside entities. specifically, mail program places email attachments associated app in directory; document interaction controllers may place files in it.
your app can read , delete files in directory cannot create new files or write existing files. if user tries edit file in directory, app must silently move out of directory before making changes.
