iOS 把 Array 和 Dictionaries 序列化成 JSON 对象

-(void)converseToJson{
    NSMutableDictionary *dictionary = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
    [dictionary setValue:@"Archy" forKey:@"First Name"];
    [dictionary setValue:@"Robbins" forKey:@"Last Name"];
    [dictionary setValue:[NSNumber numberWithUnsignedInteger:51] forKey:@"Age"];
    NSArray *arrayOfArchysChildren = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:
                                        @"Anthony‘s Son 1",
                                        @"Anthony‘s Daughter 1",
                                        @"Anthony‘s Son 2",
                                        @"Anthony‘s Son 3",
                                        @"Anthony‘s Daughter 2", nil];
    [dictionary setValue:arrayOfArchysChildren forKey:@"children"];
    NSError *error = nil;
    //NSJSONWritingPrettyPrinted:指定生成的JSON数据应使用空格旨在使输出更加可读。如果这个选项是没有设置,最紧凑的可能生成JSON表示。
    NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization
                        dataWithJSONObject:dictionary options:NSJSONWritingPrettyPrinted error:&error];
    if ([jsonData length] > 0 && error == nil){
        NSLog(@"Successfully serialized the dictionary into data.");
        //NSData转换为String
        NSString *jsonString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
        NSLog(@"JSON String = %@", jsonString);
    }
    else if ([jsonData length] == 0 &&
             error == nil){
        NSLog(@"No data was returned after serialization.");
    }
    else if (error != nil){
        NSLog(@"An error happened = %@", error);
    }
   
}
