Hello All:
I wanted to thank Clark and Aki for their very kind help, and share
what I learned.
My application (MemoryMiner) uses several excellent third party
frameworks, including DataCrux, which sits on top of the sqlite DB.
Aki was right, the problem in the end were some "vesitigial" uses of
NSString's cString and stringWithCString: methods. Once they were
converted to use UTF8String, everything started working just fine.
The thing that was driving me crazy is that I couldn't reproduce the
problem myself, even when switching the language settings to
Japanese. The problem only became reproducible when I got a vCard
with a complete set of Japanese people names, and addresses to work
with. The point here, is simply that when localizing, especially with
two-byte languages, there's no substitute for "native" testing.
At any rate, once I again I bow down and give thanks to the Cocoa-dev
community. Where would I be without it?
Best regards,
John
