Storing arrays in NSUserDefaultsController
- by neoneye
Currently I use NSUserDefaults and I'm interested in using NSUserDefaultsController,
so that I get notifications when things change.
Below is my current code.
items = /* NSArray of MYItem's */;
NSData* data = [NSKeyedArchiver archivedDataWithRootObject:items];
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setObject:data forKey:kMYItems];
How should I rework my code to store items in NSUserDefaultsController ?
Is NSKeyedArchiver the smartest way to store arrays?
@interface MYItem : NSObject <NSCoding> {
NSString* name;
NSString* path;
}
@property (copy) NSString* name;
@property (copy) NSString* path;
@end
@implementation MYItem
@synthesize name, path;
-(void)encodeWithCoder:(NSCoder*)coder {
[coder encodeObject:name forKey:@"name"];
[coder encodeObject:path forKey:@"path"];
}
-(id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder*)coder {
[super init];
[self setName:[coder decodeObjectForKey:@"name"]];
[self setPath:[coder decodeObjectForKey:@"path"]];
return self;
}
@end
