How to read data structure from .plist file into NSArray

Question

I was creating a data structure manually using the following:

NSDictionary* league1 = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithObjectsAndKeys: @\"Barclays Premier Leagu         


        

Answer 1

This Code is working

NSString *plistPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"plist-name" ofType:@"plist"];
NSDictionary *Dictionary= [[NSDictionary alloc]initWithContentsOfFile:plistPath];
NSLog(@" current version CFBundleVersion = %@",[Dictionary valueForKey:@"CFBundleVersion"]);

Answer 2

If the file is not added in the resources folder and only placed in your documents directory. You can do this

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *path = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"file.plist"];
NSMutableArray *arrContentsplist = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path];
