POObjective-C: Can't put primitives in NSDictionary and retrieve them successfully
text
Body
copied!<p>I know I can't put them in directly, but I have to convert them to an <code>NSNumber</code>, for example. I am converting them to <code>NSNumber</code>s, and then putting them in the dictionary. I immediately log the keys I'm populating, and they are blank.</p> <p>Here's an example:</p> <pre><code>- (NSDictionary*) dictionaryFromWrestler { /* * Used ot create a dictionary from the instance of the wrestler * Can be used to send and receive wrestlers through notification center */ NSDictionary* dictionary; NSNumber* _score = [NSNumber numberWithInt:score]; dictionary = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:firstName, @"firstName", lastName, @"lastName", fullName, @"fullName", shortName, @"shortName", team, @"team", seed, @"seed", actualWeight, @"actualWeight", dob, @"dob", club, @"club", hometown, @"hometown", state, @"state", grade, @"grade", extraField, @"extraField", phone, @"phone", address, @"address", zip, @"zip", record, @"record", gradeAbbr, @"gradeAbbr", twid, @"twid", teamId, @"teamId", position, @"position", _score, @"score", [NSNumber numberWithInt:teamScore], @"teamScore", [NSNumber numberWithInt:period1Score], @"period1Score", [NSNumber numberWithInt:period2Score], "@period2Score", [NSNumber numberWithInt:periods], @"periods", [NSNumber numberWithBool:hasRidingTime], @"hasRidingTime", nil]; NSLog(@"dictionaryFromWrestler Score: %@", lastName); NSLog(@"dictionaryFromWrestler Score: %i", score); NSLog(@"dictionaryFromWrestler Score: %@", _score); NSLog(@"dictionaryFromWrestler Score: %d", [[dictionary objectForKey:@"score"] intValue]); NSLog(@"dictionaryFromWrestler Score: %@", [dictionary valueForKey:@"score"]); NSLog(@"dictionaryFromWrestler Score: %@", [dictionary valueForKey:@"lastName"]); return dictionary; } </code></pre> <p>My log looks like this:</p> <pre><code>2012-05-18 17:46:53.117 Wrestling Tools[31509:403] dictionaryFromWrestler Score: Brown 2012-05-18 17:46:53.117 Wrestling Tools[31509:403] dictionaryFromWrestler Score: 2 2012-05-18 17:46:53.117 Wrestling Tools[31509:403] dictionaryFromWrestler Score: 2 2012-05-18 17:46:53.117 Wrestling Tools[31509:403] dictionaryFromWrestler Score: (null) 2012-05-18 17:46:53.117 Wrestling Tools[31509:403] dictionaryFromWrestler Score: (null) 2012-05-18 17:46:53.117 Wrestling Tools[31509:403] dictionaryFromWrestler Score: Brown </code></pre> <p>As you can see, the primitives fail, but the objects work. What the heck?</p>
