I'm having a rather bad time getting *AudioFileSetProperty* to write an
*AudioFileRegionList* to a CAF file. I suspect the problem is the way that
I'm allocating *CFString*s.

Is this an appropriate way to allocate *CFStrings* when setting a
marker.mName or region.mName?

    rgn->mName = CFStringCreateWithFormat( kCFAllocatorDefault, NULL, CFSTR(
"Region-%d"), r );



My problem is that if I try to create a List that contains more than one
Region, as soon as I call *AudioFileSetProperty*, I get "EXC_BAD_ACCESS."
This happens unless I use a very small quantity of regions and markers. The
debugger shows the exact place where AudioFileSetProperty falls over as
either "CFStringGetLength" or "CAFRegion_NtoB(CAFRegion*)".



If I create only a single Region, and then use afinfo to view my file, I
get this type of thing:

MacBook-Pro:~ username$ afinfo /Users/username/UnitTest_CAF_ANSI_C.caf

File:           /Users/username/UnitTest_CAF_ANSI_C.caf

File type ID:   caff

Num Tracks:     1

marker 992, "<unnnamed>": frame       300   SMPTE time 0:00:00:00/0 type
1935828327 ('sbeg') channel 0


The names should be "Marker-990" "Marker-991" "Marker-992" and so on.


Anyone have any ideas? I'm stumped, and after three days working on this, I
can't find much outside information.

Thanks,

Charles
