Product:iOS SDK Product Version:8.1
Classification:Serious Bug Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
NSURLBookmarkCreationWithSecurityScope constant is required for UIDocumentPickerController users to keep bookmarks to shared files. However the NSURL constant for this is not publicly available.

Steps to Reproduce:
Try to create security scoped bookmark URL as advised by documentation: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/FileManagement/Conceptual/DocumentPickerProgrammingGuide/CreatinganOutstandingUserExperience/CreatinganOutstandingUserExperience.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40014451-CH3-SW3

Expected Results:
Everything goes as documentation advises.

Actual Results:
NSURLBookmarkCreationWithSecurityScope is declared as not available on iOS.

Regression:
Passing in the raw value (1 << 11) works, but this is ugly.

Comments

Are you sure? In my experience, the security scope works on iOS even without passing in this flag.
