NSCoder encodeX:forKey vs encodeX:

NSCoder encodeX:forKey vs encodeX:


  • Subject: NSCoder encodeX:forKey vs encodeX:
  • From: Andrew White <email@hidden>

In general, will a coder that doesn't support keyed coding degenerate encodeX:forKey: to encodeX:, or do I need to follow the example in .../Cocoa/Conceptual/Archiving/index.html and provide both?


If this isn't provided by default, is anything going to break if I do the following?

@implementation NSCoder (SomeName)

- (void) encodeObject: (id) objv forKey: (NSString *) key
{
	[self encodeObject: objv];
}

// Insert equivalents here

@end


It seems the above should allow each encodeX:forKey: call to degenerate to an appropriate encodeX: call (or encodeValueOfObjCType: "X" at: objv ). Have I missed something?


Decoding is obviously less simple, since it must be decoded in the same order as it is encoded.
