You can only retain the AXObserverRef and AXUIElementRef objects. What do
you mean by archiving? You cannot store an AXUIElementRef from an app
beyond the lifetime of that app/element. I.e. If you quit the application
that the AXUIElement references then the element will become invalid.
Can you give me an example on why you need a copy primitive?
Thanks,
