That makes sense.  But how do I include the error
argument?

Ondra has addressed some of the issues, however:

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
    NSAutoreleasePool  *pool = [NSAutoreleasePool new];
    NSString *path = [NSString new];
    NSError *myLog = [NSError new];

There is no need to create either a string or an error object -- simply declare the variables.
In the case of an NSError, it may be useful to ensure it's set to nil:


    NSError *myLog = nil;


        path = @"/Users/nicholas/test2/fileB";

You could have written:

    NSString *path = @"/Users/nicholas/test2/fileB";

(in place of the original declaration and the line above).


        NSString *contents = [NSString
stringWithContentsOfFile:path
encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:myLog];

The stringWithContentsOfFile:encoding:error: method (as is the case with most methods taking an NSError argument) requires a pointer to a pointer to an error (the argument is NSError **). Your code should be:

    NSString *contents =
        [NSString stringWithContentsOfFile:path
                                  encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding
                                     error:&myLog];  // note the "&"

/Users/nicholas/test2/test2.m:14: warning: passing
argument 3 of
'stringWithContentsOfFile:encoding:error:' from
incompatible pointer type

This is telling you that, in this case, you had not passed in an NSError **.

Also, NSLog does not print to the Run Log the contents
of my decoded file. Why?

What does it print out?
