I find this issue very puzzling. I read a plist dictionary containing one ony key-value: an NSData coming a RTFD string. I read this value, I do NO changes, then I re-save it to a different plist file, and now the 2 files are different. I have inspected these 2 plist files with TextWrangler, and the difference is at the last chars of the <data> object. These chars change 'every time' I save. Why? How can I get 2 equal dicts?
docDictR = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:@"/Dict1.plist"]; textDataR = [docDictR objectForKey:@"textData"]; mString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithRTFD:textDataR documentAttributes:nil]; // now I save it textRangeW = NSMakeRange(0, [mString length]); textDataW = [mString RTFDFromRange:textRangeW documentAttributes:nil]; docDictW = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary]; [docDictW setObject:textDataW forKey:@"textData"]; [docDictW writeToFile:@"/Dict2.plist" atomically:YES]; Dict1.plist last chars of the <data> object ALS20y2AQAAAAAAAAAAAAA= Dict2.plist last chars of the <data> object DHV20y2AQAAAAAAAAAAAAA= Regards Leonardo _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
