I'm using SUDZC to connect to a web service. The original code kept overwriting values that responded. I modified the code to:
// Deserializes the element in a dictionary.
+(id)deserializeAsDictionary:(CXMLNode*)element {
if([element childCount] == 1) {
CXMLNode* child = [[element children] objectAtIndex:0];
if([child kind] == CXMLTextKind)
{
// NSLog(@"returnED:%@",[[[element children] objectAtIndex:0] stringValue]);
return [[[element children] objectAtIndex:0] stringValue];
}
}
NSMutableDictionary* d = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
for(CXMLNode* child in [element children]) {
id v = [Soap deserialize:child];
if(v == nil) { v = [NSNull null]; }
[d setObject:v forKey:[child name]];
// code added from greg to fix dictionary over writting
NSString* key = [child name];
id check = [d objectForKey:key];
if( check != nil ) {
NSInteger next = 1;
key = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%d", [child name], next];
check = [d objectForKey:key];
while( check != nil ) {
next++;
key = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%d", [child name], next];
check = [d objectForKey:key];
}
[d setObject:v forKey:key];
}
}
return d;
}
Now, I receive a bunch of null values along with my intended values:

I can't stop it from pulling the data multiple times, and pulling all the ? Shouldn't the code stop when the child is not 1?
Elements must be placed above the call [d setObject:v forKey:[child name]]; and else has to be added so the d will not be overwritten.
if( check != nil ) {
NSInteger next = 1;
key = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%04d", [child name], next];
check = [d objectForKey:key];
while( check != nil ) {
next++;
key = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%04d", [child name], next];
check = [d objectForKey:key];
}
[d setObject:v forKey:key];
} else {
[d setObject:v forKey:[child name]];
}
Otherwise elements in 'd' will be overwritten because setObject is called twice.
