    <p>I'm copying the plist to documents directory when didFinishLaunchingWithOptions in AppDelegate like this:</p> <pre><code>- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions { [self performSelector:@selector(copyPlist)]; return YES; } - (void)copyPlist { NSFileManager *fileManger=[NSFileManager defaultManager]; NSError *error; NSArray *pathsArray = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,NSUserDomainMask,YES); NSString *doumentDirectoryPath=[pathsArray objectAtIndex:0]; NSString *destinationPath= [doumentDirectoryPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Obj.plist"]; if ([fileManger fileExistsAtPath:destinationPath]){ NSLog(@"database localtion %@",destinationPath); return; } NSString *sourcePath=[[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath]stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Obj.plist"]; [fileManger copyItemAtPath:sourcePath toPath:destinationPath error:&amp;error]; } </code></pre> <p>Then I'm trying to display the content of the plist in my views like this:</p> <pre><code>NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES); NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0]; NSString *path = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Obj.plist"]; NSLog(@"plist path %@", path); sortedObj = [[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithContentsOfFile:path]; NSLog(@"objects %@", sortedObj); </code></pre> <hr> <p>LOG RESULTS:</p> <p>database localtion:</p> <pre><code>/Users/kdb/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.1/Applications/4E165740-01CD-4ED3-8971-FDCCB1751DD1/Documents/Obj.plist </code></pre> <p>plist path:</p> <p>the same as database location</p> <p>objects:</p> <p>(null)</p> <p>The content is empty. How to make it work?</p> <p>The plist is an array with dictionaries.</p>

    1. COWhat is the structure of your .plist file? It may be that the top level object is not a NSArray (<array>) but is a NSDictionary (<dict>). Can you also include the first few lines of your plist in your question as well?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
