I'm having this strange problem with NSUserDefaults, and I think I'm doing it just like the documentation says to. Here's what i do:

When a user changes a NSColorWell called colorO, I envoke the following method:

public void updatePrefs(NSObject sender)
{
NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().setObjectFor Key(colorO.color(), "colorO");
}

and I get a signal 6 (SIGABRT) error when I click on the color well. Anyone know why?

Thanks,

A default's value can be only an NSData, NSString, NSArray, or NSDictionary. No?

[Edit: Are ObjC objects serializable, like in Java? Could be useful.]

Ahh yes, you are correct. And yet, when I send in an NSArray object, I get the same error. Weird.

Um, the array can't contain an NSColor either (or any class besides NSString, NSData, NSArray, or NSDictionary).

One way is to use NSArchiver to get the NSData archive of the NSColor, and store that.

Ahh man, that would be so much easier if it did I thought as much was the problem. Thanks for the help.
