How to check if an NSDictionary or NSMutableDictionary contains a key?

Question

I need to check if an dict has a key or not. How?

Answer 1

I like Fernandes' answer even though you ask for the obj twice.

This should also do (more or less the same as Martin's A).

id obj;

if ((obj=[dict objectForKey:@"blah"])) {
   // use obj
} else {
   // Do something else like creating the obj and add the kv pair to the dict
}

Martin's and this answer both work on iPad2 iOS 5.0.1 9A405
