Hello All,

I have a strange problem with NSKeyedArchiver/Unarchiver. I have a very complex 
object graph that I want to be persistent, independently of my document 
objects, so I'm archiving it into the user's application support folder. The 
root object for the archive is a class called Network, which basically stores 
very little, but does store the "Hierarchy" for the object graph, which is 
basically just a 2D NSMutableArray (though it's a pretty big one). When I 
unarchive my Network root object, and initWithCoder gets called in the Network 
class, the Hierarchy seems fine -- I can iterate over the objects, posting 
relevant data, and everything looks good. However, once the Network is loaded 
into the application, iterating over the loaded Network Hierarchy gives an 
exc_bad_access error. I'm using the same routine to post the data, so nothing's 
changed there. 
The data that's causing the problem is a float* array, saved using 
encodeBytes:length:forKey, and decoded using decodeBytesForKey:returnedLength:, 
which is how I've saved a number of similar float* arrays in the Hierarchy.
What I don't understand is how the Hierarchy can be fine at the end of the 
Network's initWithCoder method, but then get banjaxed somehow after that. 

Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

J.
