IPhone Objects from NSDictionary PList?

How about this: NSString *blueColorString = savedData objectForKey:@"2" objectForKey:@"color" The trick is to nest the method calls, the first one savedData objectForKey:2 returns you the inner dictionary object on which you can call the method again. Hope this works as intended Best, Robin.

It can be so easy, I didn't think about that - thanks alot :) – scud Jan 16 '10 at 20:39 @Robin: the key must be a string, even if it is the number 2 in the property list file. – benzado Jan 16 '10 at 20:55 @benzado: Hmm, just curious, how would the file be built then if it were an integer? – Robin Jan 16 '10 at 21:09 1 plist format requires keys to be strings.

You can't have an integer key. – Dave DeLong Jan 16 '10 at 22:48 1 As Dave said Property List dictionaries may only have strings as keys. NSDictionary in general may have (almost) any object as a key, though it must be an object.So 2 is no good, but NSNumber numberWithInt:2 would be OK.

Typically, you would use valueForKey: when your keys are strings: // to get to "blue" string NSLog(@"outer key '2', inner key 'color' = %@",savedData valueForKey:@"2" valueForKey:@"color"); // all inner key / value pairs for (NSString *key in savedData) { NSDictionary *innerDict = savedData valueForKey:key; for (NSString *innerKey in innerDict) { NSLog(@"key %@ value %@",innerKey,innerDict valueForKey:innerKey); } }.

Thank you as well – scud Jan 16 '10 at 20:47.

That's even more elegant than the previous answers, thank you – scud Jan 17 '10 at 16:42.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
