I'm using distributed objects to obtain an NSImage from a server

It doesn't occur all the time, but quite often, the server process
just dies with a 'Bus error' on returning the NSImage.
I believe that sending the actual NSImage is bad. You'll instead
want to send the image data. Since NSImage conforms to NSCoding,
you should be able to encode the image on the sender side and
decode it on the receiver's side.
Thanks, that fixed it...but I'm not sure why. I can't find anything
in the docs about needing to encode objects before transferring
them. Aren't all objects passed through NSConnection encoded
transparently with NSPortCoder anyway? Should I be encoding my
NSDictionaries that I pass to the server?
