Question

I am using this code

NSDictionary *yourDictionary;

NSArray * yourKeys;
yourKeys = [yourDictionary allValues];

to get the value of dictionary. But i want that array output in this form : array[0] ,array[1] while I am getting the output in console as below:-

2013-01-12 18:44:10.213 Birthday_Reminder[2871:c07] (
{
},
"Arpit Sihare")

and so on values.
so plz help me to get those values in this form and also I’m using KABPersonfirstnameproperty to retrieve those name from address book.

  ABAddressBookRef addressBook = ABAddressBookCreate();
    NSArray *thePeople = (NSArray *)ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllPeople(addressBook);
    NSMutableArray* allPeoplesDicts = [NSMutableArray array];
    for (id person in thePeople)
    {
        ABMultiValueRef phone =(NSString*)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonPhoneProperty);
        NSString* name = (NSString *)ABRecordCopyCompositeName(person);
       // NSMutableArray* phones = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
        NSDictionary *phones=[[NSDictionary alloc]init ];
        for (CFIndex i = 0; i < ABMultiValueGetCount(phones); i++)
        {
            NSString *phone = [(NSString *)ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(phones,i) autorelease];
            [phones addObject:phone];
        }
        NSDictionary* personDict = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithObjectsAndKeys:name,@"Name",phones,@"PhoneNumbers",nil];
        [phones release];


        NSArray * yourKeys;
        yourKeys = [personDict allValues];


        NSLog(@"%@",yourKeys);
        [allPeoplesDicts addObject:personDict];
        [personDict release];
    }

and I want firstname in array form that when i use nslog(@”%@”,array[0]) it should print value stored in array first place and soon like array[1]….

It’s too hard to understand what you are trying to say. I tried and found…

If you just want to store all the firstName (which is your key I think) then just make yourKeys an NSMutableArray and add the names to that Array. :

[yourKeys addObject:names];

Simple !!
