Okay, so here's the initWithCoder from the object that's giving me grief. The
variable "continuations" is a float* array, and appears to load fine from here,
but disappears once the root object is unarchived and set. I've since
discovered that, through a mistake I made at another place in the code, I've
been shielded from noticing that all of my encoded float* arrays appear to be
doing the same disappearing act. So, I assume I'm doing something really wrong
here:
- (void) encodeWithCoder:(NSCoder
*)aCoder
{
// the size for the saved vector
NSUInteger size = ([self continuationsSize] * sizeof(float));
// save the length variable
[aCoder encodeInt:[self continuationsSize] forKey:@"continuationsSize"];
// encode the float* bytes
[aCoder encodeBytes:(uint8_t*)continuations length:size
forKey:@"continuations"];
}
- (id) initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)aDecoder
{
if(self = [super init])
{
NSUInteger size;
// init a bunch of other stuff
// set the size of the array (the accessor does the malloc)
[self setContinuationsSize:[aDecoder
decodeIntForKey:@"continuationsSize"]];
// set the contents of the array
continuations = (float*)[aDecoder
decodeBytesForKey:@"continuations" returnedLength:&size];
}
return self;
}
Thanks in advance,
J.
