Parse this data from JSON to NSDictionary

Question

I'm having some problems in parsing some data from a JSON to a NSDictionary, the data the JSON has inside follows the pattern:

    object =     (
            {
        "field1" = 2;
        "field2" = "something";
        array =             {
            "field3" = "anotherThing";
            booleanField = true;
           {
            };
            otherThing = "yay";
        };    
            },
         {
        "field1" = 2;
        "field2" = "something";
        array =             {
            "field3" = "anotherThing";
            booleanField = true;
           {
            };
            otherThing = "yay";
        };    
            } )

How can I create a NSArray with 2 NSDictionaries?

I expect I explained it simply

Thank you for your help

You already have it converted into an array containing two dictionaries. JSON would have `[` instead of `(`, `:` instead of `=`, etc. — Hot Licks, Nov 06 '14 at 12:48

NSError *jsonParsingError = nil;
NSArray *contentArray = [NSJSONSerialization
                         JSONObjectWithData:[aContentString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]
                         options:0
                         error:&jsonParsingError];

Hope it helps.

Possible duplicate (How to convert JSON serialized data to NSDictionary)

if your response is object = (...);

NSError *err;
NSDictionary *dictObject = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:yourData options:NSJSONReadingMutableContainers error:&err];
NSArray *arr = dictObject[@"object"];

if your response is (...);

NSError *err;
NSArray *arrObject = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:yourData options:NSJSONReadingMutableContainers error:&err];

Maybe it will help you.
