KVC string conversion not working for BOOL value

Question

Hey. I am reading in a string from a file and attempting to use the resulting string to set a BOOL property on an object using the KVC method -setValue:forKeyPath:

Answer 1

When setting a BOOL property using KVC, you need to pass an NSNumber object. What you could do in your case is pass [NSNumber numberWithBool:[myString boolValue]]. That should fix your crash.
