    <p><a href="http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/iphone/ios-sdk_afnetworking/" rel="nofollow">The following code is taken from this tutorial</a></p> <p>I've used this snippet before but I never noticed this issue before. NSLog of the array contents prints in a delegate method but not in the viewDidLoad outside of the success block. I require a way to save the JSON data into an array for use elsewhere in the code. I should also add that I'm not using UITableView to display my data. What am I missing or how can I accomplish this? </p> <p><strong>This does not print the JSON content thought it does populate the array:</strong></p> <pre><code>#import "AFNetworking.h" ... - (void)viewDidLoad { ... self.movies = [[NSArray alloc] init]; NSURL *url = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:@"http://itunes.apple.com/search?term=harry&amp;country=us&amp;entity=movie"]; NSURLRequest *request = [[NSURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:url]; AFJSONRequestOperation *operation = [AFJSONRequestOperation JSONRequestOperationWithRequest:request success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, id JSON) { self.movies = [JSON objectForKey:@"results"]; [self.activityIndicatorView stopAnimating]; [self.tableView setHidden:NO]; [self.tableView reloadData]; } failure:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error, id JSON) { NSLog(@"Request Failed with Error: %@, %@", error, error.userInfo); }]; [operation start]; NSLog(@"self.movies %@",self.movies); // does not print ... } </code></pre> <p><strong>This does print the JSON content:</strong> I've only used numberOfRowsInSection as a separate location for the NSLog statement.</p> <pre><code>- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section { if (self.movies &amp;&amp; self.movies.count) { NSLog(@"self.movies %@",self.movies); // prints ... } </code></pre>

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.
