How can I modify to fix this code? - ios

I'm a new in iOS.
I always use from JSON string to extract value data which I want. But, I faced that make a JSON string and send to web server.
I have to make a JSON string this -> "errorCode":"1491"
and my code is below.
NSString *jsonRt = #"{ \"errorCode\":\"1491\"}";
NSLog(#"[D] jsonRt : %#", jsonRt);
NSArray *jsonObject = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:[jsonRt dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]
options:0 error:NULL];
NSLog(#"jsonObject=%#", jsonObject);
NSError *error;
NSData *jsdata = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:jsonObject options:NSJSONWritingPrettyPrinted error:&error];
NSLog(#"jsdata=%#", jsdata);
return [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",jsdata];
If build and run this code, my app is stop. I can't debug from breakpoint because suddenly jammed step over button. Where I fix this code?
I forgot the function return type. This is NSString*.

No visible #interface for 'NSMutableArray' declares the selector 'getObjectAtIndex:'

I am making this app that gets some data from the url (censored). The problem is that I didn't found a solution to get what the PHP script echo.
A normal returned array from that script looks this:
{"user_data": {"id":"78","image":"https://www.i********p.com/uploads/ideas/fun/2017/03/28/78.jpg","idea":"Join Facebook groups related to your passions or hobbies and meet friends.","owner_ID":"1","owner":"Eduard","owner_photo":"https://www.i********p.com/uploads/members/1/1.png","rating":"4","reviews":"1 review","msg":"success"}}
The question is how can I access each value of this array from "user_data" using Objective-c (without a loop)?
The Objective-c code:
- (void)getJSON {
NSError *error;
NSString *url_string = [NSString stringWithFormat: #"https://www.app.i******o.com/getidea.php?topic=%#", ideasTopic];
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL: [NSURL URLWithString:url_string]];
NSMutableArray *json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions error:&error];
if (error) {
NSLog(#"Something went wrong: %#", error);
} else {
NSLog(#"json: %#", json);
NSLog(#"IMAGE: %#", [[json getObjectAtIndex:0] getObjectForKey:#"image"]);
}}
Objective-C supports literal version to access dictionary. You can directly access values by using keys.
NSString *imageUrl = json[#"user_data"][#"image"];
Your json is a dictionary of dictionaries. json[#"user_data"] returns a dictionary with keys and values. You can access values for this dictionary through respective keys. json[#"user_data"][#"image"] gives you required value for respective key.
Edit:
You need to change your json variable type to NSDictionary too.
NSDictionary *json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions error:&error];
The JSON text you provided is deserialized into NSDictionary object (you can check it yourself, by looking up what class a json variable has in your example).
So to get what you want (ex. image), you simply write
json["user_data"]["image"]

Iphone Push Notification json in unicode format

I am sending push notification in English and Bangla language from the server for both Android and iPhone platforms. The content is same for both. In Android, I am receiving the content correctly. But in iPhone, the JSON received is in Unicode format.
{"id":
2326,"title":"\u09ac\u09be\u09ac\u09c1.....
I can understand that the problem is in encode/decode. But I am not able to figure out which part (server or client) is not in sync.
Is there something I need to change in my iphone code or I need to change in server.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Try this
NSJSONSerialization decodes this correctly, as can be seen in the
following example:
const char *jsonString = "{ \"title\": \"\\u09ac\\u09be\\u09ac\\u09c1" }";
NSLog(#"JSON: %s", jsonString);
NSData *jsonData = [NSData dataWithBytes:jsonString length:strlen(jsonString)];
NSError *error;
NSDictionary *jsonDict = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:0 error:&error];
self.myLbl.text = [jsonDict objectForKey:#"title"];
NSLog(#"Title: %#", self.myLbl.text);

Getting element from NSString

my app get data from a php web service and return a NSString
["first name","last name","adress","test#test","000-000-0000","password","code","0"]
How can i get the second element ?
This is a JSON formatted string which you are getting from your web service.
You must be getting bytes from server. Just replace your variable which have bytes stored with my variable "response data".
Code:
NSError* error;
NSArray* myResultArray = [NSJSONSerialization
JSONObjectWithData:responseData options:kNilOptions error:&error];
You will get an array in variable "myResultArray" and you can get all value by index.
Code:
NSString* first name = [myResultArray objectAtIndex:0];
What you have given here is an array and not a string. May be you could provide more details like the exact response and the code that you are trying here.
To Convert a JSON string to NSDictionary all you need to do is:
NSError *jsonError;
NSData *objectData = [jsonString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSDictionary *json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:objectData
options:nil
error:&jsonError];
And to NSArray :
NSArray *array = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:objectData options:nil error:&jsonError];
NSString *secondElement = array[1];
That web service doesn't return an NSString. It runs data in some format defined by the service, and you convert it to an NSString. Find out what the format actually is, then convert it appropriately, for example using NSJSONSerialization.
The example string your showed here seems wired. This looks more like a array than string. If this is a NSArray then you can do it like this:
NSArray *data = #[#"first name",#"last name", #"adress", #"test#test", #"000-000-0000", #"password", #"code", #"0"];
NSLog (#"Second component = %#", data[1]);
However, if you anticipate this as NSString then this is how you would handle this:
NSString *test = #"[\"first name\",\"last name\",\"adress\",\"test#test\",\"000-000-0000\",\"password\",\"code\",\"0\"]";
NSLog (#"Second component = %#", [test componentsSeparatedByString:#","][1]);

Null JSON response

NSString *connection = #"http:"(link);
dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0);
dispatch_async(queue, ^{
NSError *error = nil;
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:connection];
NSString *json = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:url encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:&error];
NSLog(#"\nJSON: %# \n Error: %#", json, error);
if(!error) {
NSData *jsonData = [json dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"%#",jsonData);
NSMutableArray *jsonDict = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:kNilOptions error:&error];
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", jsonDict);
}
});
The above code returns :
JSON: "{\"value\":[{\"Id\":\" }}
but
NSData is 69746963 735c222c 5c224973 41767469 76655c22 3a5c2231 5c222c
and jsonDict returns (null).
I am confused what may be going on.
Can somebody please help me figure it out.
I am trying to get the JSON data but it returns null.
Thanks
You say the server gave you this:
JSON: "{\"value\":[{\"Id\":\" }}
If I remove the backslashes that were added by the NSLog command, the actual JSON that you received was
{"value":[{"Id":" }}
That isn't valid JSON. That's all there is to it; the server sent you rubbish data, and there is no way to get any information from it. Contact the people creating the server software and ask them to fix the problem.
And you really, really need to distinguish between what an object really contains, and what NSLog prints. NSLog prints the contents of an NSData object by displaying each byte as two hexadecimal digits.
Try one of these (array or dictionary) without converting it into JSON, depending on what u want :
NSString *connection = #"http://(link)";
dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0);
dispatch_async(queue, ^{
NSDictionary *jsonDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:connection]];
NSArray *jsonArray = [NSArray arrayWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:connection]];
NSLog(#"DICT: %# ARRAY: %#", jsonDict, jsonArray);
});
I haven't tried it, please paste results?
By the look of your NSString response, it starts with { and ends with } which means it is a NSDictionary.
Change :
NSMutableArray *jsonDict = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:kNilOptions error:&error];
to :
NSDictionary *jsonDict = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:nil error:&error];

access NSMutableDictionary value without key?

quite new to iOS development and objective-c at the same time. I have the following method:
-(NSMutableArray *)fetchDatabaseJSON{
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.ios.com/ios/responseScript.php"];
NSError *error = nil;
NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
NSData *data = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:NULL error:&error];
//jsonArray = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:0 error:&error];
//NSLog(#"Array: %#",[jsonArray objectAtIndex:0]);
jsonDictionary = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:0 error:&error];
NSLog(#"Dictionary: %#", jsonDictionary);
return jsonArray;
}
Now the NSLog shows this:
2013-02-03 19:15:37.081 TestConnection[24510:c07] Dictionary: (
Bannana,
Apple,
SomeCheese )
From what I understand that whatever is inside the dictionary doesn't have key-value. How can this be? and how can I fix it? I want to be able to have keys to ease operations on dictionary.
Regards,
JSONObjectWithData may return an NSArray or NSDictionary, depending on the JSON data you give it. If your JSON string is an array, you will have an NSArray. If your JSON data is a dictionary, you will get an NSDictionary.
Convert your JSON data (your data variable) to string and print it out with NSLog. To convert NSData to NSString, use something like:
NSString *myString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:myData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
If you print it out and see a JSON array, you simply don't have a dictionary there.. If you can alter the server-code that generates the JSON, you may be able to change that.
One more thing I noticed, you assume that the returning container is mutable. If I'm not mistaken, you need to use an option like NSJSONReadingMutableContainers in the options parameter of JSONObjectWithData to get that.
One last tip, if you want to check in code if you have an NSArray (or NSDictionary), use something like:
if ([obj isKindOfClass:[NSArray class]]) {...}
