My NSDocument subclass overrides fileAttributesToWriteToURL:ofType:forSaveOperation:originalContentsURL:error: and returns:
CharacterEncoding = 2147484701; ← Thai (Windows, DOS)
DocumentType = NSPlainText;
UTI = "public.plain-text";
When I open the file again I get in readFromURL:ofType:error:
CharacterEncoding = 30; ← Western (Mac OS Roman)
DocumentType = NSPlainText;
UTI = "public.plain-text";
And of course, it looks like complete rubbish.
There are no extendedAttributes to be seen (xattr -l reports nothing).
When I open the file in TextEdit (specifying Thai (Windows, DOS) in the OpenPanel) I get readable stuff.
And when I save the file with TextEdit there is an extended attribute: com.apple.TextEncoding = cp874;1053.
Opening the file again with my app I get the correct encoding and everything looks fine.
How is this supposed to work?
What am I missing? Do I have to set the extended attribute myself?
TextEdit seems to override fileWrapperOfType:error: - is this the only way to get the extended attribute written?
What is the point of fileAttributesToWriteToURL:ofType:forSaveOperation:originalContentsURL:error: if the dictionary returned is simply ignored?
Gerriet.
