CGPathRef encoding

Question

Is it possible to encode CGPathRef variables? I mean is there an encodeObject:forKey like method for CGPathRef variables?

Answer 1

yes, there is - I have done this: https://github.com/mro/MROGeometry/blob/master/NSCoder_MROCGPath.m

Answer 2

CGPaths are objects, but I don't think you can encode them—at least, if you can, it's not documented. You'll need to generate a saveable representation of the path yourself, and encode that, and then, when you decode that representation, reincarnate the path from it yourself.
