Swift Map Annotations and Plist - Help

Hi all

Im stuck on trying to work with Swift

I want to load my map annotations from an external plist file or similar.

Then import that plist into an array and then read the array.

Ive tried multiple bits of code and nothing is working.

So far my app gains the users location and then continually updates ther location.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

I don't know much about Swift but there are a few here that might be willing to use their knowledge. In the meantime, can you provide some code so that we have context?

Hi,

So far I have a plist.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<array>
<dict>
<key>name</key>
<string>London Eye</string>
<key>location</key>
<string>{51.503324,-0.119543}</string>
</dict>
<dict>
<key>name</key>
<string>Big Ben</string>
<key>location</key>
<string>{51.500729,-0.124625}</string>
</dict>
</array>
</plist>

var LEAnnotation = MKPointAnnotation ()
LEAnnotation.coordinate = LondonEye
LEAnnotation.title = "London Eye"
LEAnnotation.subtitle = "You are looking at the London Eye"

// Add the annotation to the MapView
myMapView.addAnnotation(LEAnnotation)

Is how I'm adding annotations currently.

Now i want to use the data from the plist to add the annotations

Is it possible? Using Swift and Xcode 6

I have now got this,

func addAttractionPins() {
let filePath = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("LondonPlaces", ofType: "plist")
let attractions = NSArray(contentsOfFile: filePath!)
for attraction in attractions! {
let point = CGPointFromString(attraction["location"] as String)
let coordinate = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(CLLocationDegrees(point.x), CLLocationDegrees(point.y))
let title = attraction["name"] as String
let annotation = AttractionAnnotation(coordinate: coordinate, title: title)
myMapView.addannotation(annotation)
}
}

With the help of an online tutorial, I'm now getting an error on line let annotation...
