An NSDictionary object is created with some keys and values (all NSString objects).
NSEnumerator object is created from NSDictionary object by calling NSDictionary:keyEnumerator: method.
Following code is collected from http://www.cocoadev.com/index.pl?NSDictionary
int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
NSDictionary *dict;
NSEnumerator *enumerator;
id key;
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
dict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
@"A beverage prepared by heating cocoa with water/milk",
@"cocoa",
@"http://www.cocoadev.com/",
@"cocoadev",
@"4 : a list (as of items of data or words) stored in a computer for reference (as for information retrieval or word processing)",
@"dictionary",
nil];
// printf("entry for cocoa: %s\n\n",
// [[dict objectForKey:@"cocoa"]cString]);
// Use of the cString method is discouraged ASCII is out Unicode is in.
// Also watch out for [[dict objectForKey:@"cocoa"]cString] notice the
// lack of a space between the receiver and the message.
// And lastly since this is a Cocoa example why not use an NSLog()
NSLog(@"entry for cocoa: %@", [dict objectForKey:@"cocoa"]);
enumerator = [dict keyEnumerator];
while ((key = [enumerator nextObject])) {
//printf("%s : %s\n", [key cString],
// [[dict objectForKey: key] cString]);
NSLog(@"%@ : %@", key, [dict objectForKey:key]);
}
[pool release];
return 0;//NSApplicationMain(argc, argv);
}
