Determining object type



Hi All:

I'm reading an XML file via:
data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:path];
and
prop = (NSMutableArray *)CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(...);

If I call 

temp = [prop objectForKey:key], I'd like to know what type of object is returned before I do anything with it.

isKindOfClass: for NSString works, but what about any other types. I know one of the values I need is a boolean, the data in the XML file is: 

<key>ServerIsBound</key>
<true/>

but what do you use to test to make sure that it's a boolean? Or a data blob? 

Any hints would be appreciated.

Thanks...
