That would be poor API design. If it had -writeToFile, then it would also need -writeToStream:, -writeToFileHandle:, -writeToFileDescriptor:, -writeToNSURLSessionDataDelegate:, etc. Providing the data itself means you can then use existing APIs on other classes to put the data anywhere you want. —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
