Alright, I am stumped so I am asking for help (and it is annoying me because I am 100% certain that the answer will be stupid simple).
I have a bit of code (old code I might add) that I am updating to ARC and other such modern features. Unfortunately, I have run into a little snag. The code calls out to a C library that expects good old fahsioned C Strings of the UCHAR * variety. In prior versions of OS X and Cocoa cStringUsingEncoding would return the string and things would be ducky. However, starting with Mavericks and Xcode 5 I am seeing a problem where the resulting char * is encoding characters to hex representations. So for example, the following NSString taken from an NSTextView content NSString myValue = "select * from some_table where column_name = 'value'" becomes (UCHAR *)szValue = "select * from some_table where column_name = \xe2\x80\x98value\xe2\x80\x99" Even more disturbing is that it only happens when typed into the NSTextView. Pasting the above NSString value into the NSTextView results in the unescaped output. I am guessing that is has to do with the settings on the NSTextView, but I do not see what changed to cause this. I am hoping someone can clue me into the probably dead obvious problem. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
