NSMutableDictionary won't accept my NSString as Value (NEWBIE)

[Sebastian Pape]

Hi,

This might be pretty easy for most of you. I've been trying to find
out how to solve that for the last one and a half hours and it just
doesn't work.

Basically this part of the application scans data from a buffer,
taking the first element found as "a Value" and the second element
found as "a Key" for a NSMutableDictionary.
But my NSMutableDictionary won't accept my NSString, because it
requires setValue:(id)value and I just have my NSString.

XCode gives me a warning about that and GDB sends me a "***
-[NSCFDictionary setValue:ForKey:]: unrecognized selector sent to
instance 0x1dd090".

I hope you can tell me what the problem is.

Thankyou
Sebastian.
