visual
representation in java is correct.

is that data copied into clipboard from legacy java application doesn't match data pasted into Cocoa application. I've got data with accented characters which gets converted through MacOS Roman encoding even the

the
UCS-2 version of the string):

If you want to print the string as hexadecimal without any conversions, something like the following (keep in mind this is showing you basically

Not UCS-2, UTF-16. (The distinction is important if the string
contains any characters outside of the BMP.

Yeah, my bad... UTF-16, not UCS-2

void dumpString(NSString *str)
{
    NSUInteger len = [str length];
    unichar *chars = malloc(len * sizeof(unichar));
    [str getCharacters:chars];
    uint i;

i should be NSUInteger as well.

I don't think that really matters all that much, just a matter of
style mostly. I think /should/ is strong. It could be NSUInteger
or just int or uint32_t or unsigned int or whatever...

If the length is an NSUInteger, then the counter should be as well.

it's just  a counter for a simple debugging example, right :)

Indeed, but unless there's a good reason, using different types for
the index and the limit is not a good idea.

This is true... I guess using good habits are important even when
building a quick & dirty little debugging example... it really does suck
when your debugging code has bugs that make you chase your tail :)

    printf("NSString at %08p = { ", str);

No need to use %08p, just use %p.

I wanted %08p... it was on purpose. I like my debugging messages
to line up properly :)

Then what happens when you build 64-bit? :)

Cry? :)
