I am new to Swift and not very experienced as a programmer in general. My question is what am I doing wrong with decoding data?I seem to have no problem encoding and writing data to disk but when I read and decode that same data, it is having a problem.import Foundation
class Person: Codable {
var name: String
init(name: String){
self.name = name
}
}
let aPerson = Person(name: "John")
let documentsDirectory = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask).first!
let archiveURL = documentsDirectory.appendingPathComponent("name_test").appendingPathExtension("plist")
let propertyListEncoder = PropertyListEncoder()
let encodedPerson = try? propertyListEncoder.encode(aPerson)
try? encodedPerson?.write(to: archiveURL)
let propertyListDecoder = PropertyListDecoder()
if let retrievedPersonData = try? Data(contentsOf: archiveURL),
let decodedPerson = try? propertyListDecoder.decode(Person.self, from: retrievedPersonData) {
print(decodedPerson)
}The output is: __lldb_expr_X.Person (where X is an odd number that will start at 1 and rise after every subsequent run).Any ideas?
