PB v.2.1, OS X 10.2.6
Hi, I'm making a Foundation tool based on this code I found on the net.
I've stored snippets of phrases in an XML plist I made in Property List
Editor.
I added the "Phrases.plist" to my project in PB. A dictionary with keys
matched to arrays of phrases.
Then I tried accessing the plist, but I get (null) back...Is my code
not properly assigning the NSStrings to the arrays?
here's a portion of my plist, then code...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"
http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";>
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>phrase_01</key>
<array>
<string>on the highway</string>
<string>in Sheboygan</string>
<string>outside Fresno</string>
<string>at a truck stop</string>
<string>on probation</string>
<string>in a jail cell</string>
<string>in a nightmare</string>
<string>incognito</string>
<string>in the Stone Age</string>
<string>in a treehouse</string>
<string>in a gay bar</string>
</array>
<key>phrase_02</key>
<array>
<string>in September</string>
.... and so on

code - main.m

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
NSMutableArray * lines;
NSArray * phrases01;
NSArray * phrases02;
NSArray * phrases03;
NSArray * phrases04;
NSArray * phrases05;
NSArray * phrases06;
NSArray * phrases07;
NSArray * phrases08;
NSArray * phrases09;
NSArray * phrases10;
NSArray * phrases11;
NSArray * phrases12;
NSString *path;
NSDictionary *allPhrases;
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
path = [[NSBundle mainBundle ] pathForResource:@"Phrases"
ofType:@"plist"];
allPhrases = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile: path];
phrases01 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_01"];
phrases02 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_02"];
phrases03 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_03"];
phrases04 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_04"];
phrases05 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_05"];
phrases06 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_06"];
phrases07 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_07"];
phrases08 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_08"];
phrases09 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_09"];
phrases10 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_10"];
phrases11 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_11"];
phrases12 = [allPhrases objectForKey:@"phrases_12"];
NSLog(@"phrases 1 = %@", phrases01);
// insert code here...
//NSLog(@"Hello, World!");
[pool release];
return 0;
} // main
the NSLog statement results in:
2003-06-07 12:08:38.700 countrygen[4094] phrases 1 = (null)
countrygen has exited with status 0.
any help would be appreciated..
Michael
