I want to read the "album data" in my iPhoto Library DB (Library6.iPhoto) -- the "dbAL" section.

The 2nd-13th bytes are \00bstreamtyped so it looks like an "old archive" (not NSKeyedArchiver-style) according to the "Archives and Serializations Programming Guide for Cocoa".

If I try to unarchive it with NSUnarchiver I get an NSArchiverArchiveInconsistency exception: "*** file inconsistency: read 'i', expecting '@'".

If I knew something about the binary file format I could probably figure out the problem.


Does anyone have a description of the binary format that NSArchiver produces?

Thanks
