Hi, all.
I have a document based application that now needs to import/export
some new file types. Since these files do not contain all of the
data of the document, I want them to be import/export filetypes
In a former life, I had these implemented via
loadDataRepresentationOfType and dataRepresentationOfType. These
were listed in the info.plist, and all was well. In lDROT, I grabbed
the whole file as an NSString, then parsed in
windowControllerDidLoadNib.
I switched to a new storage architecture, where it was no longer
appropriate to use lDROT and dROT. (Core Data, as it turns out, but
the details are not germane.)
Since the older file formats are less expressive than what is
currently being generated, adding them back to lDROT, etc., does not
make sense.
Does anyone have some sample code on how best to get a file panel up
and an NSString from the resulting path? I suspect I can handle
creating the menu item, hooking it up to an IBAction, etc.
(URLs are fine, references to CocoaDevCentral, whatever.)
Scott
