plistSerialization is a set of categories for Cocoa that provide simplified plist serialization support

Usage is simple

// Create an array from the property list data
NSArray *items = [NSArray arrayWithPropertyListData:data];

// Generate the property list data from an existing array
[items propertyListData];

// Create a dictionary from the property list data
NSDictionary *itemDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithPropertyListData:data];

// Generate the property list data from an existing dictionary
[itemDict propertyListData];


Using ASIHTTPRequest to load the property list data you could do the following
eg.

  ASIHTTPRequest *request = [DBRequest getWithPath:path];    
        
  NSString *response;
  NSError *error = [request error];
  if (!error) {
    response = [request responseString];
    DLog(@"response %@ | statusCode: %d", response, request.responseStatusCode);
    
    if(request.responseStatusCode == HTTP_200_SUCCESS) {
      DLog(@"successful response");            
      NSArray *parsedItems = [NSArray arrayWithPropertyListData:[request responseData]]
    }
  }
  
  
Thanks
