Question

I’m having issues parsing an Atom feed, as in nothing shows up on my tableview for this particular feed. Can anyone verify that this is working?

Should I not be using NSXMLParser?

Here is what I’m looking for, specifically:

-(void)parser:(NSXMLParser *) parser foundCharacters:(NSString *__strong)string{
    //save the characters for the current item

    if ([currentElement isEqualToString:@"title"]) {
        [currentTitle   appendString:string];
    } else if ([currentElement isEqualToString:@"link"]) {
        [currentLink   appendString:string];
    } else if ([currentElement isEqualToString:@"pubDate"]) {
        [currentDate  appendString:string];
    } else if ([currentElement isEqualToString:@"description"]) {
        [currentSummary   appendString:string];
    }
}

The problem is that you are trying to parse RSS tags in an Atom feed. They both have a different structure and use a different set of tags. You will have to adjust your parser to parse based on the feed type.
