Hello,

I recently recompiled an existing project for 10.6. I made no changes to the code. However, the resulting binary is no longer able to open older files created by this program. The error message is:

The document “Budget.drachma” could not be opened. drachma cannot open files of this type.

The program "drachma" is a simple budget tracker I use to track household expenses. It uses Core Data as its storage format, and I believe the files are stored in SQLite. As far as I know, I did not make any changes to the model, and the file I am trying to open was created from the same code, but compiled and running on 10.5.

I seem to recall having a similar problem when upgrading to 10.5: at the time, I think I linked with 10.4 libraries to solve it. Doing the same now, however, does not seem to work. I am not sure why it should be necessary anyhow: other programs I have which use Core Data seem to be able to open the older files.

I'm not really sure what other information to provide, but any tips to how I might fix this problem would be much appreciate!

Not that I expect anyone to go this far out of their way, but the project is available here:

        http://svn.smallcultfollowing.com/main/drachma/src/

I could probably gin up a "sanitized" input file with the same problem.


thanks,
Niko_______________________________________________
