The %@ format specifier is a Cocoa-ism. (Well, it's also understood by Core Foundation.) It is not one of the standard printf-style format specifiers. You can't expect any random C library routine to understand them and then interpret the passed-in argument as an object pointer and invoke -description on it. Try: syslog(LOG_NOTICE, "Some string %s", [person.name UTF8String]); Regards, Ken _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
