Hi all,
Earlier I was experementing with reading in a .plist file in my app, now I am trying to write code to access this file from a server.
Before I started I had to make sure I was not still accessing a local copy so I deleted the file from the supporting files folder in Xcode and uninstalled the app from the simulator, then to be extra sure I reset the content and settings of the simulator.
The odd thing is that when I run the app now it still reads all the data from the file which should not be the case, my code is below:
What it does is read in the plist and output a list of product names from the plist to the console.
All I need to know is how to clear the old .plist file from the simulator, I think I know how to access the plist remotely already but I can't test it untill I know for sure the local file is gone.
Can anyone help me do this?

Code:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
// Override point for customization after application launch.
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
// create a pointer to a dictionary and a temporary dictionary
NSDictionary *dictionary;
NSDictionary *tempDict;
// read "productFeed.plist" from application bundle
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath];
NSString *finalPath = [path stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"productList.plist"];
dictionary = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:finalPath];
// dump the contents of the dictionary to the console
for (id key in dictionary) {
tempDict = [dictionary objectForKey:key];
NSLog(@"Product Name = %@", [tempDict valueForKey:@"name"]);
}
self.window.rootViewController = self.viewController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}What it does is read in the plist and output a list of product names from the plist to the console.
