Using defaults read to get value from plist
Hi there,
I'm trying to retrieve a value from a plist file, which I have done before with no problems, however this plist file looks a little different.... Normally it's like this; <plist version="1.0"> <dict> key>KeyName</key> <string>blah</string> I want the value of KeyName, so 'defaults read com.example KeyName' returns the value "blah". But the plist I'm having problems with is like this.... <plist version="1.0"> <dict> key>HEADING</key> <dict> <key>KeyName</key> <string>blah</string> ...and 'defaults read com.example KeyName' returns an error saying the domain/default pair does not exist. Please can anyone advise if there is a way to retrieve this value? Kind Regards davewg |
