I want to write out NSColor objects to XML. I know I can archive
them into NSData objects, and a string representation from those.
The string can then be added to the XML. What I have trouble with is
getting the string back into an NSData object so that I can
unarchive. Any pointers?
Ok, I might simply be less than smart here, and the answer is probably
obvious, but I can't see it. The basic issue is: I have an NSData
object and want to store it in an XML node, then later restore it from
an XML node. Lots of sifting through documentation and usually helpful
internet sites and generally making the cogs in my brain groan, squeak
and creak for the better part of yesterday and today yielded no usable
results.
I know how to (un)archive NSData objects to/from disk and user
defaults, but am not sure how to turn them into strings (to store in
XML elements) and especially how to restore them from strings that
represent NSData objects.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
