Apologies to John Tsombakos who I sent this to in error a few minutes ago
when it was meant to go to this list. Anyway...
Okay so I'm new to Cocoa. I'm working on a UML modelling tool - mostly to
learn Cocoa.
Now, in the olden days (C++) I'd see the job of persisting my model as my
job. Just another function I need to implement. These days however (Obj-C)
it appears that Cocoa *may* do that for me. I've read all about NSCoder etc.
but am still not sure what I need to do. I want to do it right you see. Any
pointer appreciated. Bear in mind that my model structure will constist of
any numer of classes, which - in turn - will contain any number of
operations etc. Also, my diagrams will refer to items in my model but will
also contain coordinate details to determine where they appear on the
diagram (2 different documents?).
What should I be doing? What's the first step?
<pointer for how technical the answer can be>
Just so you have an idea of my (in)competence: -
10 years programming, 5 years OO with C++, 5 minutes (well, a few weeks)
Obj-C and Cocoa.
Been through the Learning Cocoa book and was able to correct the (many)
mistakes as I went along.

Many thanks in advance.
