    <p>I've been racking my brain over this seemingly simple issue. I have a XYZObject class where I declare:</p> <pre><code>@property BOOL checked; </code></pre> <p>In my View Controller, I import the object and whenever I use 'checked', the app compiles fine but breaks at runtime wherever 'checked' is used, for example:</p> <pre><code>XYZObject *tableitem = [myDictionary[currentCategory] objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]; if (tableitem.checked) { cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark; } </code></pre> <p>This was working fine until I deleted and re-added the XYZObject class, so I've been debugging under the assumption that something in the file path is what's screwing things up. But I can click on 'checked' in my VC and under Quick Help it shows the proper reference to XYZObject. This is the exact error:</p> <pre><code>[__NSCFString checked]: unrecognized selector sent to instance </code></pre> <p><strong>EDIT/UPDATE:</strong></p> <p>With some help I've realized the issue is that when I changed my datasource from manual declaration in the ViewController, to importing a Plist, I completely scrapped my XYZObject and didn't account for it. Here is the original way I declared my dictionary:</p> <pre><code>XYZCategory *category1 = [[XYZCategory alloc]init]; category1.categoryArray = @"First Category"; [categoryArray addObject:category1]; XYZObject *object1 = [[XYZObject alloc]init]; object1.objectName = @"My String"; [objectArray addObject:object1]; myDictionary[category1.categoryArray] = objectArray; </code></pre> <p>When I switched to the Plist, the code changed to:</p> <pre><code>NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"myDictionaryPlist" ofType:@"plist"]; NSMutableDictionary *plistDictionary = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path]; objectArray = plistDictionary[@"First Category"]; myDictionary[category1.categoryArray] = objectArray; </code></pre> <p>And then for reference, XYZObject makes the following declarations:</p> <pre><code>@property NSString *objectName; @property BOOL checked; </code></pre> <p>So the dictionary problem would be that I'm just pulling the direct strings for the objectArray, instead of a set of XYZObjects. I'm going to keep testing but I'm pretty sure I just have to re-define objectArray to be a set of objects based on what's pulled from the Plist.</p> <p>But I also think that since I'm using the Plist now to create a dictionary (that is popped into a table where the Keys are sections and Values are rows), I can simplify things by removing the XYZCategory and XYZObject all together. Not sure if that's possible but I'm going to work towards it.</p>

    1. COCan you post the code you use to convert that Dictionary element into an XYZObject?

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.
