#to_plist(format = :xml) ⇒ String

TODO:

encoding format can be pushed upstream?

Override MacRuby’s built-in #to_plist method to support specifying an output format. See PLIST_FORMATS for the available formats.

Examples:

Encoding a plist in the binary format

{ key: 'value' }.to_plist(:binary)

Returns:

  • (String) —

    returns a string with the caller’s contents serialized as a plist and encoded using format

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)
