Came across an interesting problem. Trying to get distributed objects to pass a common class between processes.

To avoid versioning issues I had the class in a shared location so that both client and server could use it.

On the server I was seeing a decodeRetainedObject: class ‘bleh’ not loaded error in the console log. Took a while to figure out, but XCode doesn’t automatically assign a class that are dragged and dropped into a project to the main target. The files simply needed to be assigned to the requisite target and everything works fine.
