I have this same problem. I generate a list of display names in my app, so it actually dumps a large number of them. Rebuilding the launch services database on my computer fixed a lot of them, but there are still some. From what I can tell, they do not impact code functionality at all though.

Hi!

All of a sudden my application started printing the following error message:

2006-03-11 01:13:07.473 HoudahSpot[8542] CFLog (0):
CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): plist parse failed; the data is not proper UTF-8. The file name for this data could be:
/Users/pierre/Development/build/Debug/HoudahSpot.app/Contents/ Resources/MyDocument.mom
The parser will retry as in 10.2, but the problem should be corrected in the plist.


Now the culprit can not be the MyDocument.mom file. That one is generated by xCode at compile time.

After some debugging I narrowed the problem down to the following line in my code:

NSString *name = (NSString*) MDSchemaCopyDisplayNameForAttribute ((CFStringRef) key);

The error is printed the first time this is called.

Now that I can make no sense of. I take it this reads some localized PLIST somewhere deep within the system. That would not have changed in ages.


The plist in question would have come from an importer bundle... You might try watching fs_usage while you reproduce the error to narrow down which bundle.


HTH,
