Basically, Sherm and I were suggesting the same thing with regard to
NSFileWrapper. It's just that he wasn't too clear about what
dictionaries he was talking about. As he clarified in his reply, you
add the NSFileWrappers for your image files and your XML file to your
directory by creating a directory NSFileWrapper and handing it a
dictionary containing all the NSFileWrappers for the files. Not sure
what the keys for that dictionary are, though. The file names?
The other option I was talking about, saving your image files as
NSData in your NSDictionary, isn't really the desired option in most
cases. It's only useful if you want to make it harder for your users
to look at the image inside your file or so.
I haven't really ever used NSFileWrapper. So, when in doubt, do what
Sherm tells you. It's more likely that he is right than I am.
But, to save your NSMutableArray, you'll have to use
NSPropertyListSerialization to generate XML from your dictionary
inside an NSData. Because NSData is the only way you can get your
data into an NSFileWrapper, AFAIK.
