The documented @encode format does not contain static type information for ObjC types: <https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ObjCRuntimeGuide/Articles/ocrtTypeEncodings.html> The fact that the string returned by property_getAttributes *does* contain static type information is an undocumented extension. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
