[MacRuby-devel] NSString.to_data

[Robert Rice]

Using the Scripting Bridge to process e_mails, the bridge return NSString rather than String class when reading the message content. This works fine except that the .to_data method is undefined for NSString. I am able to use dataUsingEncoding as in the following:

content		= message.content.get # Returns NSString rather than String 
nsdata		= content.dataUsingEncoding( NSASCIIStringEncoding )
nsdata.writeToURL( @url, atomically:true )

But for consistency, you may want to add the .to_data method to the NSString class.

Thanks,
Bob Rice
