[__NSDictionaryI setObject：forKey：]：无法识别的选择器已发送到实例

Question

I am trying to add "dateTime" to My dictionary as defined follows:

Symptom Ranking: {
    5111ef19253b4a9150000000 = 1;
    5111f029253b4add4e000000 = 1;
    5111f036253b4a123d000001 = 1;
    5111f045253b4a404f000000 = 1;
}

NSLog(@"date selected: %@", [[self.datePicker date] description])

[self.results setObject:[[self.datePicker date] description] forKey:@"dateTime"];

App crashes and I get this:

Symptom Tracker[43134:c07] -[__NSDictionaryI setObject:forKey:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7603990

Answer 1

Your dictionary is immutable - it's an NSDictionary and not an NSMutableDictionary . Fix that, and it'll work fine.

Answer 2

I ran into this error once when I accidentally declared a copy property like so:

@property (nonatomic,copy) NSMutableDictionary* downloadHandlers;

when I did this in my init :

self.downloadHandlers = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];

I actually got an immutable dictionary. I would have expected that calling copy on a mutable object would also give me a mutable object, but apparently not. Anyway, removing to the copy keyword (which I never intended to be there in the first place) fixed the problem.

Answer 3

您需要使用NSMutableDictionary堆栈跟踪显示您正在使用__NSDictionaryI ，（ NSDictionary ）是不可变的

Answer 4

As the top-ranked answer said you need to use NSMutableDictionary instead of NSDictionary . And in case you want to use literals, use mutableCopy like:

NSMutableDictionary* dict = [@{@"key": @"value"} mutableCopy];

So that you can re-assign keys using

dict[@"key"] = @"new-value";

Answer 5

This problem occurs most of the time when we are dealing with a web-service response because the data received is immutable. When you try to alter immutable data the application will definitely crash. I hope the following code snippet will help.

NSMutableDictionary  *headerData;

/*Every time you need to allocate memory to the corresponding MutableDictionary variable*/

headerData =[[NSMutableDictionary alloc ]initWithDictionary:response[@"Header"]];

Answer 6

In My case I had a swift code that returns value in [AnyHashable:AnyObject] format, I had to convert it to NSMutableDictionary,

NSMutableDictionary *logDict = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc]initWithDictionary:[[AnalyticsManager shared]addCommonPropertiesWithProperties:logDict]];

Where as [[AnalyticsManager shared]addCommonPropertiesWithProperties:logDict] this part returns in [AnyHashable:AnyObject] format. That fixed my issue.
