Re: Storing an NSCalendarDate in a CFMutableDictionaryRef

I'm curious, what does this code do?

if (CFGetTypeID( (CFTypeRef)aCalendarDate ) == CFDateGetTypeID())
 NSLog( "it will work" );
else
 NSLog( "it probably won't" );

I'd test myself, but I'm late to work.

I ran the test, and it prints "it will work". Which I'm happy to say, it apparently does. I'm creating NSCalendarDates and storing them in a CFMutableDictionary, and Sync Services seems perfectly happy with them (where it was _not_ happy with a CFDate).


Score one for toll-free bridging. But can someone with a better understanding of the internals tell me: is this always the case? In other words, is it always safe to store subclasses of Objective-C toll-free bridged types in a CF container?
