In fact the Str255 is a Pascal String. You need to convert it into cString
before use it.
You can do this whit the fonction
void CopyPascalStringToC ( ConstStr255Param src, char *dst);
Doc is in the chapter "Text Utilities" in Carbon Doc "Text and other
international services".
After just do a [NSString stringWithcString:dst] to create the NSString.
