%S specifies a null-terminated array of 16-bit unicode characters. What you're passing is an NSString object. So the specifier should be the object specifier, %...@.

                [xmlParser setDelegate:JGOXMLParser];


The second is
error: parse error before "JGOXMLParser"
and point to
[xmlParser setDelegate:JGOXMLParser];

I understand that – loadDataRepresentation:ofType:
method is valid in 10.3.9 but deprecated in 10.4
but I have to work with what I have.

Does the delegate have to be an instance?


It has to be an instance of *something*. JGOXMLParser I'm assuming is the name of your class. You can't have static objects in Objective-C as you can in C++, so this statement is illegal. If you want your class to implement the delegate methods, you could pass [JGOXMLParser class], since a class is an object. Or you could instantiate an actual JGOXMLParser. The latter sounds by far the less weird of the two options.
