Overview

NSUnarchiver, a concrete subclass of NSCoder, defines methods for decoding a set of Objective-C objects from an archive. Such archives are produced by objects of the NSArchiver class.

In macOS 10.2 and later, NSArchiver and NSUnarchiver have been replaced by NSKeyedArchiver and NSKeyedUnarchiver respectively—see Archives and Serializations Programming Guide.
