Hello again,
First of all I like to thank you all fellows here on the list, I never had
found a resource where Iearned so much in a really short time. With every
day I come closer and closer to the concepts of the Cocoa framework and
learn how to read it (the documentation is IMHO not really the easiest one
;-) Therefore: THANK YOU GUYS! Hopefully in the near future I can help you
at some issues :-)
I like to save the contents of a NSMutableArray into a file. My method
therefore is:
- (IBAction) saveFile:(id)sender
{
NSString *configFile;
configFile = [NSString stringWithString:@"~/myfile.txt"];
configFile = [configFile stringByExpandingTildeInPath];
[contents writeToFile:configFile atomically:YES];
}
This works fine, but the result is a XML-Format, which is obviously right,
since "contents" is an Array. But I need the file back in a standard UNIX
format (linefeed at the end and so on). Unfortunately I did not found any
method in the documentation which put my Array (actually a NSMutableArray)
into a NSString. I search for this method, because I believe this is the
way to save it. If not, feel free to advise me.
Another point is the header of the column in a NSTableView. I found in the
documentation, that I have to use "setTitle" to give the header a NSString.
But unfortunately I can't manage it.
Frank
