Objective-C : pulling value out of NSString

Question

Hey all, I have a bunch of NSStrings like this....

{
     "score" = 15;
     "serial" = 8;
}

What is the best way to extract the values out of this string using "id" and "score"?

Answer 1

These are property lists in text format. See this answer for how to parse them. You'll get a NSDictionary from which you can pull the values as NSNumbers.
