Question

I’m using a class written by a blogger that takes an XML string and spits out a NSDictionary.

It’s beautiful…works perfectly, but my tag is not parsed. since in that class he has used like below

NSString *const kXMLReaderTextNodeKey = @"text";

- (void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser didEndElement:(NSString *)elementName namespaceURI:(NSString *)namespaceURI qualifiedName:(NSString *)qName {

    // Update the parent dict with text info
    NSMutableDictionary *dictInProgress = [dictionaryStack lastObject];

    // Set the text property
    if ([textInProgress length] > 0)
    {
        [dictInProgress setObject:textInProgress forKey:kXMLReaderTextNodeKey];



        // Reset the text
        [textInProgress release];
        textInProgress = [[NSMutableString alloc] init];
    }

    // Pop the current dict
    [dictionaryStack removeLastObject]; }

Kindly please help me out how to fix this…

Thanks a lot

Note: Make sure the XML you’re parsing doesn’t contain a field named “text”! You can change it to a non-conflicting name by editing the kXMLReaderTextNodeKey constant at the top of XMLReader.m.

This is there in the BLOGGER Website. In XMLReader.m file you have NSString *const kXMLReaderTextNodeKey = @"text"; which conflicts with your xml tag <text> so either change your xml field tag from <text> to anything else or

change NSString *const kXMLReaderTextNodeKey = @"text";

to NSString *const kXMLReaderTextNodeKey = @"textdata";

After that use NSDictionary as routine code. Check it out and let me know.
