Yes, there is another issue. :) Encoding is one part of the problem. Currently, Camaelon does not change the encoding of any class. Using poseAs:, however, *does* cause a to change the class name which is used in the archive, which is a problem when subsequently trying to load that archive without Camaelon running. For instance, if I have a user bundle which uses poseAs to make Image take the place of NSImage (which is the case with Camaelon), this causes the issue since any NSImage instance will be saved with the class name "Image". Such an archive would be unreadable without Camaelon loaded, since the class "Image" doesn't exist in GNUstep itself. Nicolas has corrected this in Camaelon 2 by making the classForCoder method in the Image class and return the NSImage class, which causes the archiver to use the correct class when encoding. Since Camaelon 2 is not, as of yet, released people are still using Camaelon 1. The older version has the issue described above and thus people run the risk of corrupting their .gorm files if they edit them while in Gorm using Camaelon 1. I put the warnings in to prevent this. I am open to discussing a better way to handle it, if anyone has any ideas. I believe the best solution at this point is for Camaelon 2 to be released so that this becomes a non-issue. I believe also that an entry should be made in the FAQ concerning user bundles explaining this precise issue and how to get around it.
