Question

I am trying to access a dictionary from an array.

I add the objects to the dictionary like so

[_recentDictionary setObject:videoString forKey:@"video"];
[_recentDictionary setObject:imageString forKey:@"image"];
[_recentDictionary setObject:titleString forKey:@"title"];
[_recentDictionary setObject:descriptionString forKey:@"desc"];

I then add the dictionary to an array like so

for (int i = 0; i<10; ++i)
{
      if (i == 0) {
            [self.recentArray addObject:_recentDictionary];
      }
}

and then save the array via a nsuserdefault

_savedArray = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
[_savedArray setObject:self.recentArray forKey:@"recentArray"];
[_savedArray synchronize];

To the call the above in another View

NSUserDefaults *savedDefaults = _showListView.savedArray;

NSMutableArray *savedArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithObjects:[savedDefaults objectForKey:@"recentArray"], nil];

But I cannot figure out how to access the dictionary in this array.

Answer 1

Retrieve the one by one array element in a dictionary.

NSDictionary *dict = [savedArray objectAtIndex:0];

Then access the elements of dictionary(dict) as per your requirement.
