The SDK will indeed have to change... In Objective-C++11 this is problematic because NSComparisonResult and NSInteger are now different enough that, for example, NSArray's declaration of: - (NSArray *)sortedArrayUsingFunction:(NSInteger (*)(id, id, void *))comparator context:(void *)context; is quite wrong to use NSInteger when it means NSComparisonResult. -- ____________________________________________________________ Sean McBride, B.
