我创建了一个plist,它被初始化为一个字典数组数组。 plist存储动态数据。因此,当应用程序终止时,可能会添加新的词典元素。或者可能有新的字典元素数组要添加。之后,可能会有更少的字典元素,因此不再需要以前的元素。虽然有很多关于向plist添加元素的讨论,但似乎都没有解决我的问题。这是最初的plist描述:
Key Type Value
Root Dictionary (2 items)
Hourly Data Array (1 item)
Item 0 Array (1 item) <--how do I add more of these
Item 0 Dictionary (3 items) <--how do I add more of these
Name String Joe
Rank String private
serialNo String 123456
NonHourly Data Array (1 item)
Item 0 Array (1 item)
Item 0 Dictionary (3 items)
Name String Jeff
Rank String private
serialNo String 654321
虽然我完全理解如何读取这个plist文件,但我不明白如何将数组元素添加到Hourly和NonHourly数据数组中,或者如何添加新的Dictionary数组项,然后将它们写回到plist文件中
所以给出以下代码作为起点,如何完成此代码以添加上述数组元素和字典元素:
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES); // Create a list of paths
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *configPlist = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"config.plist"];
NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSMutableDictionary *data = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile: configPlist];
...
[data writeToFile: configPlist atomically:YES];
答案 0 :(得分:1)
现在回答,基本上我需要从内到外工作,并创建一个包含要存储的数据的二级字典数组。然后将该2级数组添加到1级数组。最后,1级数组作为对象存储在每小时数据或plist的非每小时数据键中。这是解决方案:
// Create an array of arrays of content encoded as dictionary objects for hourly data
armyPerson *aPerson;
NSArray *level1Element;
NSMutableArray *level2Array;
NSMutableArray *level1Array = [[[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithObjects:nil] autorelease];
for (int i=0; i<[allHourlyPersons count]; i++) {
level1Element = [allHourlyPersons objectAtIndex:i]; // grab the next level1 array element.
// Each level1 array element will have zero or more level2Arrays. The info for each level2 dictionary needs to be collected into
// an level2Array element as individual dictionary objects
level2Array = [[[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithObjects:nil] autorelease]; // initialize the level2Array
for (int j=0; j<[level1Element count]; j++) {
aPerson = [level1Element objectAtIndex:j]; // grab the next armyPerson
// For each episode, create a dictionary object
NSDictionary *level2Element = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:aPerson.name, @"Name",
aPerson.rank, @"Rank",
aPerson.serialNo, @"serialNo", nil];
[level2Array addObject:level2Element]; // save the info for this episode
}
// Now that we have all the episodes for this level1Element collected into an array of dictionary objects,
// we need to add this array to the level1 array
[level1Array addObject:level2Array];
}
// Finally, we need to create the key-value pair for the hourly source array
[data setObject:level1Array forKey:@"Hourly Data"];
...
Do the same for the Non-Hourly Data prior to:
[data writeToFile: configPlist atomically:Yes];
