I have a subclass of NSData that I am providing my own NSCoding methods

Unfortunately when I try to archive my object only the bytes are
archived and none of my extra information is getting archived. It turns
out that my subclass's -encodeWithCoder method isn't getting called at
all. I can only assume that NSArchiver recognises my object as an
NSData-like object and thinks it knows how to archive it without
bothering to go through encodeWithCoder.
Here's the backtrace of the point in the the code where I _think_ the
object is about to be archived...
#0 -[CMyData bytes] (self=0x5285a0, _cmd=0x9086b8c0) at

/Volumes/Home/schwa/Desktop/EncryptedObjectTest/main.m:36
Because NSData supports the NSCoder protocol I would expect the
archiving to go through -encodeWithCoder, but as I've found out it
doesn't seem to. This seems like a definite bug to me... Is this a
known bug and are there any work arounds?
Cheers.
Jon.
You implemented -encodeWithCoder:(NSCoder*) encoder, correct?
You are talking about -encodeWithCoder in the above which is different
then -encodeWithCoder:. Not sure if you are just using short hand
but...
