Path of the file to probe.
- error
- NSError
The error will be set to null if there was no error, or it will point to an instance of NSError if there was a problem.
Returns
true if the extended attribute is set.
Remarks
This returns true if the file is marked not to be backed up by iCloud, otherwise it will return false. This high-level API automagically adjust itself based on the version of iOS being executed. On iOS 5.0.1 (only) it will use the old getxattr API to get the value of the "com.apple.MobileBackup" attribute. On iOS 5.1 (and later) it will use NSUrlIsExcludedFromBackupKey to accomplish the same.
