从.plist（-[NSCFString objectAtIndex：]）填充时TableView崩溃

Question

Hey guys, my app crashes upon load and it throws up this when debugging:

2011-02-26 00:24:33.254 LCPapers[5182:207] Set up the cell...
2011-02-26 00:24:33.255 LCPapers[5182:207] 0
2011-02-26 00:24:33.257 LCPapers[5182:207] -[NSCFString objectAtIndex:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x4b175f0
2011-02-26 00:24:33.261 LCPapers[5182:207] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[NSCFString objectAtIndex:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x4b175f0'

It'd be really great if someone could tell me what to fix, as I'm fairly new and the hours spent frustrated over this have been horrible!

Answer 1

At this line you are actually fetching a string (" English "):

NSArray *array = [dictionary objectForKey:@"Title"];

next you do:

selectedSubject = [array objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];

this crashes because the object is a string, not an array.

This should work:

NSDictionary *dictionary = [self.tableDataSource objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.text = [dictionary objectForKey:@"Title"];

Answer 2

For your warning Local declaration... It seems that you have taken table through xib.... and the name you have given must be tableview...and the name in the tableview delegate and data source method is also tableview.

Change the name of your tableview to something else,like presentTableView or what ever you want. Now this will not show you this type of warning..as there was the same name.....

Or it may be the cause that you have declared object in your .h and .m file with the same name

e.g. if i write 
NSString *myStr; 

in my .h file

and in my .m file if i also write

 NSString *myStr;
 myStr== [NSString stringWithFormat:@"bg%d_iPad.png"];

The compiler will show warning that local declaration of variable hide instance variable something like that. Hope this will help you
