The string pointers can be different, but they can contain identical string keys, resulting in identical values. I wanted to find values by in a more efficient way than dumb array iteration, say, like binary tree search which is probably used in NSDictionary or NSMapTable. > It's not useful to pursue this line of thinking without benchmarks. Now I guess you're right. I just didn't know it was going to be that complicated. I thought it was pure benefit and cheap. I am reverting to using NSDictionary. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
