[Pyobjc-dev] NSError.localizedDescription() and Application Bundles

[Jean-Pierre <cho...@fr...>]

Hello,

I am having problems to get the localized error message from an  
NSError object.

The following code runs fine when launched as a simple script in the  
Terminal:

from Foundation import *
url = NSURL.URLWithString_("http://invalid")
request = NSURLRequest.requestWithURL_(url)
(data, response, error)=  
NSURLConnection.sendSynchronousRequest_returningResponse_error_(request)
NSLog("error:%@", error.localizedDescription())
print unicode(error.localizedDescription())

But fails with an UnicodeError Exception: <type  
'exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError'>: 'ascii' codec can't encode character  
u'\u2019' in position 3: ordinal not in range(128)
when ran from a Cocoa-Python Application project from Xcode.
The error string has indeed an non ascii character in its fourth  
position ("can’t find host"), but the type of the  
error.localizedDescription() object is objc.pyobjc_unicode so it  
shouldn't be a problem.

Am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks,
