NSKeyedArchiver save method ( that i made) crashed the iphone simulator
- by Kevin
i saw this approach on a tutorial, and the message is working for their example but when i implement this it does not work. from what i can tell the iphone simulator crashes when i do a [ self saveSettingsData]. TheSettings is class object that i declare and initialize in the appdelagate with these methods. the error says terminating due to uncaught exception. i am new to the iphone sdk and objective, so i really can't figure out what is going on
thanks to any one who can help, i am ready to literally pull my hair out.
(NSString *) SettingsDataFilePath
{
NSString * settingsDataFilePath ;
NSArray * paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) ;
NSString * documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0] ;
settingsDataFilePath = [[documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent: @"SetggggtingsData.plist" ] retain] ;
return settingsDataFilePath ;
}
(void) saveSettingsData
{
[NSKeyedArchiver archiveRootObject:[TheSettings copy] toFile:[self SettingsDataFilePath]] ;
