Hi, all

I have a problem with the NSMutableAttributedString's setBaseWritingDirection method

here is a code

NSMutableAttributedString *attrString = [[[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:textString attributes:stringAttributes] autorelease];

The above creates an immutable NSAttributedString. The pointer to that is stored in a variable of type NSMutableAttributedString*, but that doesn't make it so. Replace the use of "NSAttributedString" in the above with "NSMutableAttributedString" to do the proper thing.



NSRange attrStringRange = NSMakeRange(0,[[attrString string] length]);
@try {
[attrString setBaseWritingDirection:NSWritingDirectionNatural
range:attrStringRange];
} @catch (NSException *exception) {
NSLog(@"main: Caught %@: %@", [exception name], [exception reason]);
}
I'm getting exception
2008-06-15 16:39:06.465 Gateways[14812:10b] *** - [NSConcreteAttributedString setBaseWritingDirection:range:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x10248ab0


NSLog output is

2008-06-15 16:41:48.676 Gateways[14812:10b] main: Caught NSInvalidArgumentException: *** -[NSConcreteAttributedString setBaseWritingDirection:range:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x10248ab0

This exception sort of gives you the hint, if you know what to look for. The object is of the concrete class NSConcreateAttributedString, which doesn't indicate that it's mutable, so you can guess that it isn't.


Cheers,
Ken
