Detailed Description

A key/value property store, like a set of MIME or RFC822 headers (but without the weird details).

It can be written to or read from a block of data; the data is binary, not the textual format that MIME uses.

Member Function Documentation

+ (BLIPProperties *) propertiesWithEncodedData:		(NSData*)	data
usedLength:		(ssize_t*)	usedLength

Parse properties from a block of data.

On success, returns a Properties object and sets *usedLength to the number of bytes of data consumed. If the data doesn't contain the complete properties, returns nil and sets *usedLength to zero. If the properties are syntactically invalid, returns nil and sets *usedLength to a negative number.

+ (BLIPProperties *) properties

Returns an empty autoreleased instance.

- (NSString *) valueOfProperty:

(NSString*)

prop

(Case-sensitive, like NSDictionary, but unlike RFC822.)
