So I am loading a dict from NSUserDefaults which says it is not mutable (but the sub dictionaries are mutable in practice (might be just a OS bug)). Root someKey someDict (3 items) someDict keyA dictA keyB dictB keyC dictC Dicts A, B & C contain a bunch of string keys which I need to modify and rewrite out to user defaults. In Carbon I could do: CFPropertyListCreateDeepCopy (kCFAllocatorDefault, localDict, kCFPropertyListMutableContainersAndLeaves); Is there a NSDictionary way to do this?
