Here's the Console log printout info

CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): plist parse failed; the data is not proper UTF-8. The file name for this data could be:
/Users/kentozier/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict
The parser will retry as in 10.2, but the problem should be corrected in the plist.

Hi

My plugin converts NSObjects to handles for storage in a parent application and am finding that the data the handle points to seems to disappear out from underneath me. When I fetch the handle from the parent app at a later time, the handle itself isn't null, but the data it pointed to is.

Here's how I'm packing the NSObjects into a handle:

BOOL UtilSlugHandleFromNSObject(id inSlug, Handle *result)
{
	BOOL			exeOK	= NO;
	NSString		*err	= nil;

	NSData			*data;

	data			= [NSPropertyListSerialization dataFromPropertyList: inSlug
							format: NSPropertyListXMLFormat_v1_0
							errorDescription: &err];

	*result			= NULL;
	if (err == nil)
	{
		PtrToHand([data bytes], result, [data length]);

		exeOK			= YES;
	}
	else
		NSLog(@"Error: %@ serializing slug: %@", err, inSlug);

	return exeOK;
}

And here's how I'm pulling the NSObjects back out of the handles

id UtilNSObjectFromSlugHandle(Handle inSlugHandle)
{
id result = nil;

if (inSlugHandle != NULL)
{
NSString *err = nil;

HLock(inSlugHandle);
NSData *slugData = [NSData dataWithBytes: inSlugHandle length: GetHandleSize(inSlugHandle)];
HUnlock(inSlugHandle);


NSLog(@"In: UtilNSObjectFromSlugHandle, slugData: %@, slugData length: %i", slugData, [slugData length]);

result = [NSPropertyListSerialization
propertyListFromData: slugData
mutabilityOption: NSPropertyListMutableContainersAndLeaves
format: NULL
errorDescription: &err];

if (err != nil)
NSLog(@"Error: %@ while attempting to deserilize slug: %@", err, slugData);
}

return result;
}


The NSLog for slugData in UtilNSObjectFromSlugHandle above displays a data chunk that is mostly filled with ff with a valid length.

Being an autoreleased NSData probably has something to do with it but I would have thought that PtrToHand did something internally to prevent the deletion of the data it points to. Is there some other way I can prevent these disappearing handles?

Thanks for any help

Ken
