How to make GDATAXML compatible with ARC in XCODE 4.2?

Question

I tried to convert GDATAXML Lib to ARC automatically with a refractor -> Convert to Objective-C ARC in Xcode 4.2.

The ARC converter gives the following error:

result = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:(const char *) chars]; if (cacheDict) { // save the string in the document string cache CFDictionarySetValue(cacheDict, chars, result); } 

error: Fuzzy conversion of an Ojective-C pointer to void.

Has anyone succeeded in converting GDATAXML Libs to ARC Objective-C?

Answer 1

follow the instructions on how to get GDataXML to work with your code: http://ibombsite.blogspot.com/2012/02/how-to-make-gdataxmlnode-work.html

Answer 2

I found a person who (apparently successful) did refactoring for ARC.

You need to use bridge translation:

CFDictionarySetValue(cacheDict, chars, (__bridge_retained_void*) result);

Check out the Apple article "Transition to ARC," especially the part about the bride .
