Nope. NSCoding is a protocol, it will work with any style
archiver/unarchiver you choose to implement. For example, I use my
own MPWXmlCoder, which works just fine with both Apple internal and my
own classes via NSCoding. It also works fine under GNUStep...
I'm afraid you're missing some crucial bits of information here, and
scaring people away from Core Data before Tiger is even out. This is
unfortunate because Core Data is really well designed. I think they
deserve the benefit of the doubt.
Even though we're only discussing public information at this point, I
think it's an interesting study on why Apple goes to such extents to
hold things close to the chest until the thing actually ships.
