Lazarus 1.2.6  FPC 2.6.4   i386-darwin-carbon

Problem with a unit implemented with Objective-Pascal. This is my first Lazarus Objective-Pascal, although I have significant experience with FPC Pascal and separately with Xcode on Mac OSX.

It seems I don't understand something. Having studied online documentation including "FPC PasCocoa", "Cocoa Interface", and "FPC PasCocoa/Differences", I'm still somewhat confused as to the proper code to accomplish the interface to the Objective-C system. You can see my code (relevant parts) below the extracts from the crash reports seen next.

I tried with both the class method NSData dataWithBytes:: and with the instance method initWithBytes:: (both codes below, one commented out) and they both result in somewhat similar crashes as given below.

Any comments are greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

+ (instancetype)dataWithBytes:(const void *)bytes
                       length:(NSUInteger)length
Parameters
bytes   A buffer containing data for the new object.
length   The number of bytes to copy from bytes. This value must not exceed the length of bytes.

Return Value
A data object containing length bytes copied from the buffer bytes. Returns nil if the data object could not be created.

Import Statement
OBJECTIVE-C
@import Foundation;

Your selector is indeed wrong. The selector name of "+ (instancetype)dataWithBytes:(const void *)bytes length:(NSUInteger)length" is 'dataWithBytes:length:'. That's unrelated to Objective-Pascal specifically, it's how message names are defined in Objective-C.

I believe you are  saying my 'message' specifiers need to include the 'length:' part of the selector, indeed all additional parameters?  I shall now try that.  I had somehow assumed only the method name was needed in the message. None of the examples I found in the online documentation had anything else, but then those examples didn't require any such.  Thanks so very much. I knew I was very close to success. 'The devil is in the details.'

"length:" is not a parameter, it's part of the message name itself. The "(NSUInteger)length" at the end is the parameter.

Yes, I guess I should have said "...indeed the message components representing all of the additional parameters" or something to that effect.  In any case, you have solved my problem. Many thanks again.
