Subject: Re: Appending multiple dictionaries to a plist
That's essentially what I have done, when I write to the plist my structure
looks something like this:
<dict>
<key>profile name</key>
<dict>
<key></key>
<string></string>
.
.
.
</dict>
</dict>
My real problem seems to be when the user creates a new profile name in the
app, it will just overwrite the above structure with the new profile, not
append that profile after the preceding ones in the plist.. I am using
the [dict writeToFilePath:path atomically: YES]. I've tried to use both yes
and no for writing atomically, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
