Re: Why won't this work!?





2007/10/24, Mike Schrag <email@hidden>:
Because NSArray has a custom implementation of valueForKey that tries
to call whatever key you give it on the elements of the array ... For
instance, "array.name" returns an array of the names of all the
elements in the array.  The only exceptions to this are @ operators
and "count".  What you want is WOConditional condition =
downloads.count (negate = false).

I've notice one thing with NSDictionary:
 you can call directly the key of the element to get the value:

dict = {key1 = "MyValue1", key2 = "MyValue2"}

str : WOString {
   value = dict.key1;
}

and result is MyValue1.

is this how dictionaries work?
