I had been previously been working with the following code, though it does not give the desired result of a .plist file. Besides mentioning the IBAction in the header files in this code...
I have an application where a user creates settings that are stored in an NSMutableDictionary. I have to send this to a server, where it can be later retrieved by a recipient. I can serialize the dictionary, and send it to the server. My question is, if I send it as NSData, store it in a blob field in my postgresql db, and then send it...

So that was all fine. Next I went and added a similar line to g...

NSFileManager* fm = [NSFileManager defaultManager]; NSString* path = [PathHelpers pathInDocumentsFolderWithFilename:FILE_NAME]; NSDictionary* a...
[actionMap setObject:@selector(actionNavPop) forKey:@"navPop"]; This doesn't work. NSDictionary can only hold objects, and a SEL type is not an object. For number types you can do [NSNumber numberWithInt:123] but is there any sort of similar object wrapper for selectors? ...
I've been trying to save a plist of a NSDictionary to my app's Documents folder. I haven't tried this on the device yet but I'd like it to work on the simulator for testing purposes. The [self createDictionaryFromChoreList] method just creates a NSDictionary from some data in another class of mine. I've pretty much copied/pasted this cod...

Can anyone please review the following method and tell me if it is necessary to release the enumerator for the dictionary keys after using it? I'm new to objective c and not always sure, when to release variables returned from the SDK methods. I suppose the keyEnumerator method returns an autoreleased instance so I don't have to care abo...

In my scenario, I will later retrieve the keys from the NSDictionary and do some operations with them. The operation happe...
