John,
If you're talking about Core Data then you can determine the
attribute type by using the NSEntityDescription.
-----------------------------------------------------------
NSManagedObject myManagedObject; // assume this exists
NSAttributeDescription *attrDesc = [[[myManagedObject entity]
attributesByName] valueForKey:@"myAttributeName"];
NSAttributeType attrType = [attrDesc attributeType];
-----------------------------------------------------------
See NSAttributeType for the constants used to designate the different
types.

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...
