Look up type casting (of pointers) in a C reference. What you're doing here is just treating the NSArray* as an NSString*, which doesn't magically convert the object it points to to an NSString.


       //    get the path for saving the file
        const char* thePath;
        NSString       *currentPath;
        NSString     *applicationName;
        NSString* thePathString = [theSavePanel filename];
        thePath = [thePathString cString];


// open a new file FILE* theFile = fopen(thePath, "w"); if(theFile != NULL) {

            fwrite(GetValue,1,11111,theFile);

        }
        //   close the file
       fclose(theFile);

Most likely what you want is something like the following (untested),

FILE* theFile = fopen([[theSavePanel filename] fileSystemRepresentation], "w");
if (theFile != NULL) {
fputs([[[_inspectingGraphicView graphics] description] UTF8String], theFile);
fclose(theFile);
}


or, completely cocoaified,

[[[_inspectingGraphicView graphics] description] writeToFile: [theSavePanel filename] atomically: YES encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding error: NULL];

or even (if your NSArray only contains property-list-compatible data)

[[_inspectingGraphicView graphics] writeToFile: [theSavePanel filename] atomically: YES];
