url = some/picture.gif
NSDataReadingOptions mask = 0; // NSDataReadingUncached
NSData *data = [ NSData dataWithContentsOfURL: url options: mask error:
&outError ];
got 19420 bytes
NSImage *image = [ [ NSImage alloc ] initWithContentsOfURL: url ];
BOOL ok = [ NSArchiver archiveRootObject: image toFile: @"/tmp/anImage"
];
got 307559 bytes (NSKeyedArchiver adds another half kB)
This 16-fold increase of data is - regardless of image quality - not acceptable
for my purposes.
So I will use dataWithContentsOfURL (and switch to NSURLConnection once the
unresponsiveness of the app becomes annoying).
I still have no idea why my image delegate never gets messaged. But not
important anymore.
Kind regards,
Gerriet.
