Because the defaults are stored as a plist, so the objects written there have to be property list objects. I agree, it's a bit annoying that this isn't handled transparently. You have to convert those objects to NSData, one way to do that is to archive them individually and save the archive data as the object, but anything else that allows them to be described as a plist object is fine, e.g. a string. --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
