Hi Chuck:)
Check that the strings file has {...} around it like this:
{
key1="value one";
key2="value two";
}
Actually this is correct.
It seems I have to implement a complete parser for my .strings files.
I'll most probably be using it quite often, so I'm ready to invest
some time to do it.
I'll be using it for 3 type of thing:
-get a complete NSDictionary or NSArray from a .strings
-get a partial NSDictionary or NSArray from a .strings based on a
qualifer like "key contains xxxxx" (easy if I can get a complete
NSArray)
-create a reverse NSDictionary/Array from value to key (I know I'll
have to ensure the uniqueness of the value on my own if I do that)
What would be the best way to approach this? and maybe some pointer
for the following steps;)
Thanks:)
Chuck
Hi Xavier,
you could read the content of your InputStream into a String and
then use NSPropertyListSerialization to parse that String into a
dictionary:
NSDictionary dict = (NSDictionary)
NSPropertyListSerialization.propertyListFromString(fileContent);

Hi:)
I've got a resource in my Framework (text.strings), I know I can
access a specific key using WOResourceManager.stringForKey, but
I need to create an array of all the key in the file.
I first though I could go through an InputStream like
rm.inputStreamForResourceNamed ("text.strings", FrameworkName,
null))
but I'm not sure what to do next...
I think I'm probably not going the easiest way. Maybe
WOResourceManager already has a feature to get all the key-value
in a NSArray or NSDictionary, but I can't find it.
Any pointer is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
