How can I parse XML data using AFNetworking 3.0

问题

I am doing a simple project to display the weather report using this a link and I implemented the following code to get the result...

AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];
manager.responseSerializer = [AFHTTPResponseSerializer serializer];
[manager GET:@"https://graphical.weather.gov/xml/SOAP_server/ndfdXMLserver.php?wsdl" parameters:nil progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * task, id responseObject) {
    NSData * data = (NSData *)responseObject;
    NSLog(@"Response String: %@", [NSString stringWithUTF8String:[data bytes]]);
 }failure:^(NSURLSessionDataTask *  operation, NSError *  error) {
    NSLog(@"Error the result is unfound in the database %@", error);

}];

In the above code, I finally retrieved XML but I don't know how to parse it and make it display in table view... I am new to ios developing can anyone please help me what to do to get data and display it in tableview..

every xml files like property list can be cast as NSDictionary , i am swift developer but , if you have data in xml its possible to cast it to NSDictionary

in Swift 4 :

do {
   if let plist = try PropertyListSerialization.propertyList(from: plistData, 
    format: nil)
        as? NSDictionary  {
            // Successfully read  list.
            print(plist)

        } else {
            print("not a dictionary")
        }
} catch let error {
    print("not a plist:", error.localizedDescription)
}

In Objective-C :

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains (NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsPath = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *plistPath = [documentsPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"myPlist.plist"];

if (![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:plistPath]) {
    plistPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"myPlist" ofType:@"plist"];
}

NSDictionary *dict = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:plistPath];
