Here are a couple of examples that probably should not behave like that.
{{{
>> NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults['oreilly.owned_books'] = [{:topic
=> 'macruby', :isbn => '9781449380373'}]
=> [{:topic=>"macruby", :isbn=>"9781449380373"}]
>> NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults['oreilly.owned_books'].first[:isbn]
=> nil
>>
NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults['oreilly.owned_books'].first['isbn']
=> "9781449380373"
}}}
problem: The hash item defined by a key being a symbol is only available
using a string key.
{{{
% macirb
irb(main):001:0> { 'foo' => 'foo', :foo => :foo }
=> {"foo"=>"foo", :foo=>:foo}
irb(main):002:0> h = _
=> {"foo"=>"foo", :foo=>:foo}
irb(main):003:0> NSDictionary.dictionaryWithDictionary(h)
=> {"foo"=>"foo"}
}}}
Entries using a symbol or a string key should not be merged.
During an offline discussion, Laurent said:
Very likely a problem with the copy functionality of symbol.
