How can I add a boolean value to a NSDictionary?
The new syntax since Apple LLVM Compiler 4.0
dictionary[@"key1"] = @(boolValue);
dictionary[@"key2"] = @YES;
The syntax converts BOOL
to NSNumber
, which is acceptable to NSDictionary
.
You use NSNumber.
It has init... and number... methods that take booleans, just as it does integers and so on.
From the NSNumber class reference:
// Creates and returns an NSNumber object containing a
// given value, treating it as a BOOL.
+ (NSNumber *)numberWithBool:(BOOL)value
and:
// Returns an NSNumber object initialized to contain a
// given value, treated as a BOOL.
- (id)initWithBool:(BOOL)value
and:
// Returns the receiver’s value as a BOOL.
- (BOOL)boolValue
