Question

I have a ccColor3B property in my class which I’d like to persist using NSCoding. How can I achieve this? NSCoder does not seem to have a method which allows it.

@Justin is correct, you must encode via bytes, but I think he’s over thinking things:

// encode
ccColor3B input;
[coder encodeBytes:&input length:sizeof(input) forKey:@"color"];

// decode
ccColor3B output;
const uint8_t *bytes = [coder decodeBytesForKey:@"color" returnedLength:NULL];
memcpy(&output, bytes, sizeof(output));
