NSBundle - (not loaded yet) Error

Question

I am trying to get a strings file table for use with NSLocalizedStringFromTableInBundle.

I am using this method:

+(NSBundle*)getBundleForLang:(NSString*)lang{
     //get the path to the bundle
    NSString *bundlePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"localizable" ofType:@"strings" inDirectory:nil forLocalization:lang];
    NSLog(@"bundlePath = %@",bundlePath);

    //load the bundle
    NSBundle *langBundle = [[NSBundle alloc] initWithPath:[bundlePath stringByDeletingLastPathComponent]];
    NSLog(@"langBundle = %@",langBundle);
    return langBundle;
}

While it is working great on the simulator, when i try to use it on an iPhone device i get this NSLog:

2011-12-09 00:40:14.533 MyApp[12754:707] langBundle = NSBundle 
</var/mobile/Applications/915E6BCB-EC44-4F1D-891B-EF68E2FA89C2/MyApp.app/he.lproj> 
(not yet loaded)

Why isn't it loaded and where is the problem?

Thanks

Check the case of your file paths. The simulator (by default) is not case sensitive, whereas the device is. This could cause the simulator to successfully find the file, but the device to fail.
