You're creating your own problem here.  If you are controlling what the
configuration plist is, make it a dictionary at the top level with three
keys and entries:

idString - something that confirms to you that this is one of yours
array - the array you want in some cases
dictionary - the dictionary you want in some cases.

Then you deserialize it, confirm it's one of yours, and branch on which of
the latter two keys is not null.

This kind of situation can arise if you are configuring multiple apps out
of the same code base.

If you're not controlling the configuration plist, just use
NSPropertyListSerialization as noted previously and branch on what you get.
