Re: Storing an NSCalendarDate in a CFMutableDictionaryRef

I ran the test, and it prints "it will work". Which I'm happy to

happy with them (where it was _not_ happy with a CFDate).


Score one for toll-free bridging.

Actually, this sounds like a bug in toll-free bridging -- CFDate and NSDate should be interchangeable (as specified in the documentation for both).

I don't think it's a bug. It's just that Sync Services requires a NSCalendarDate for any database fields of type "calendar date", and neither CFDate nor NSDate qualify because they do not include time zone information. The toll-free bridging works fine -- it's Sync Services that is being picky.
