I use CFCopyLocalizedString all over the place to load strings. Works
great. One beta tester said my app crashes as soon as he launches it.
I tried running my app on my old G3 with 10.3.3 installed and it
crashes when the pref loading code calls
CFCopyLocalizedString(CFSTR("PrefsFileName"), nil); What could be
wrong with that? . . . . .
Hmm, thinking that my passing nil as the 2nd parm might be causing the
crash, I changed it to "", then to "PrefsFileName". Neither make it
work. If I debug on the G3, the stack looks like this when I get the
bad access: . . .
It would appear that the 2nd parameter to CFCopyLocalizedString() is
not even used to make the call (by examining what the #defines actually
do), which means it is only there for the benefit of the "genstrings"
tool. Do you use that?
Another suggestion might be to examine preprocessor output from the
compiler, just to be absolutely sure of what you're getting when all
the #defines are resolved.
FWIW I always use the CFCopyLocalizedStringFromTable() variant...
