Just make the people objects NSDictionary and then create an NSArray of
people. Then when you write it out, it will write it properly. I
haven't tried this, but I know it works with CoreFoundation, which is
what the NS stuff is based on. (or perhaps it is the other way around)

Hello,
I have a question about property lists:
I have data which is a list of information about objects that I want
to store in a property list - it is basically like a list of
information about people.
So I want to represent it as an array of arrays of strings. This
way, I can easily read and store the data with methods like
"arrayWithContentsOfFile:" and "writeToFile:atomically:".
The problem is is that I want to represent the 'people' as objects
(for the obvious OO benefits). However, if I do, I will lose the
ability to use "arrayWithContentsOfFile:" and
"writeToFile:atomically:" because the array will no longer contain
only property list objects.
Is there a protocol or something which I can make the 'people'
objects conform to which will make the saving and loading work?
Thanks in advance,
Karl
