My quick dismissal that it "doesn't any sense" was about Kyle's suggestion that perhaps localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare isn't suitable for algorithms which require a transitive comparison operation.

I'm not actually using that method, it's just a nice compact name for the mailing list, and has the same errant behavior as -[NSString compare:options:range:locale:] and CFStringCompareWithOptionsAndLocale. ~Martin _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
