Convert NSDictionary value (id?) to NSString or NSNumber to compare it
Did you use the comparison operator (==) to compare your objects?
If so, you didn't compare the values of your objects but their memory addresses.
If the object returned by [returnDictionary objectForKey:@"code"] is of type NSString you should use NSString's isEqualToString: If it returns a NSNumber instance, you could compare the intValue of that object to 1.
[[returnDictionary objectForKey:@"code"] isEqualToString:@"1"] or
[[returnDictionary objectForKey:@"code"] intValue] == 1
You can use
[[returnDictionary objectForKey:@"code"] isKindOfClass:[NSString class]]to check the class of the object pulled from the dictionary.
Hope it helps!
If you expect the output to be an integer, you can call intValue.
[[returnDictionary objectForKey:@"code"] intValue] == 1
Also, you can log the type of the returned object by + class; method.
NSLog(@"%@", [[returnDictionary objectForKey:@"code"] class]);
