Question

I have a problem with this method. I have eleven images with this names: Articulo 1.png, Articulo 2.png, etc. I dont know why , but my array of images only has the last image. Am I doing something wrong?

Here is my example:

NSMutableArray imagenesA = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
NSMutableDictionary *dict = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
UIImage *image = [[UIImage alloc]init];
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc]init];
NSMutableString *name = [[NSMutableString alloc]init];
NSMutableString *name2 = [[NSMutableString alloc]init];

for (int y = 0; y < 11; y++)  {

    name = [NSMutableString stringWithFormat:@"Articulo %d.png",y+1];
    image = [UIImage imageNamed:name];
    imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
    name2 = [NSMutableString stringWithFormat:@"Articulo %d",y+1];
    [dict  setObject:name2  forKey:@"nombre"];
    [dict  setObject:imageView forKey:@"imagen"];

    [imagenesA insertObject:dict atIndex:y];

    // show all dictionarys
    NSLog(@"DICT: %@", dict);
}

// show index 0 element --> must be Articulo 1 but...
NSDictionary *d = [[NSDictionary alloc] 
                    initWithDictionary:[imagenesA objectAtIndex:0]]; 
NSLog(@"*********************%@***********************",d);

Answer 1

Yes. @albertamg is correct in his comment above. Your for loop should look like the following.

for (int y = 0; y < 11; y++)  {

    // Other codes here

    NSMutableDictionary *dict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
    [dict  setObject:name2  forKey:@"nombre"];
    [dict  setObject:imageView forKey:@"imagen"];
    [imagenesA insertObject:dict atIndex:y];
}
