how to check valueOfKey is Array or Object when we get it from json in ios

Question

I have 2 cases to parse JSON First is:

{
    \"post_filter_data\": {
        \"Items\": [
            {
                \"ItemID\": \"50cb4e46b5         


        

Answer 1

Yes, you can check using class like

if ([[dictMenu valueForKey:@"Items"] isKindOfClass:[NSArray class]])
{
    // array inside
}

Answer 2

Get data rx in _recievedData then check the class of the object.

    id object = [NSJSONSerialization
                     JSONObjectWithData:_recievedData
                     options:kNilOptions
                     error:&error];
    if (error)
    {
         NSLog(@"Error in rx data:%@",[error description]);
    }
    if([object isKindOfClass:[NSString class]] == YES)
    {
         NSLog(@"String rx from server");
    }
    else if ([object isKindOfClass:[NSDictionary class]] == YES)
    {
         NSLog(@"Dictionary rx from server");
    }
    else if ([object isKindOfClass:[NSArray class]] == YES)
    {
         NSLog(@"Array rx from server");
    }
