I am trying to save a bookmark into an xml file but am having difficulty 
converting the bookmark to and from an NSString. Below is my code. I have 
temporarily put it all in the NSDocument readFromURL method:


- (BOOL)readFromURL:(NSURL *)absoluteURL ofType:(NSString *)typeName 
error:(NSError **)outError{
              
        NSData *bookmark = [absoluteURL bookmarkDataWithOptions: 
NSURLBookmarkCreationSuitableForBookmarkFile
                             includingResourceValuesForKeys:nil 
relativeToURL:nil error:NULL];
    
        NSURL *url = [NSURL URLByResolvingBookmarkData:bookmark options: 
NSURLBookmarkResolutionWithoutUI relativeToURL:nil
                               bookmarkDataIsStale:NULL error:NULL];
    
        [model newFile:[url path]];

// The above works. The following however doesn't:
    
        NSString *str = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:bookmark 
encoding:NSUTF16StringEncoding];        
    
        NSData  *data = [str dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF16StringEncoding];
            
        url = [NSURL URLByResolvingBookmarkData:data options: 
NSURLBookmarkResolutionWithoutUI relativeToURL:nil
                                    bookmarkDataIsStale:NULL error:NULL];

        // url is nil here
        
     [model newFile:[url path]];

    return YES;
}

In the second part I am simply trying to convert the bookmark to and from a 
string, but it fails. I have tried several encodings - NSUTF8StringEncoding, 
NSUnicodeStringEncoding but no luck.

Can anyone point out what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks!
