I'll be using it for 3 type of thing:
-get a complete NSDictionary or NSArray from a .strings

NSPropertyListSerialization already does that.

a .strings file is not a valid plist. so it does not.
you have to convert them to a plist (add the {}, as you already told xavier) before NSPropertyListSerialization can read them.

-get a partial NSDictionary or NSArray from a .strings based on a qualifer like "key contains xxxxx" (easy if I can get a complete NSArray)

It won't do that.

why not? do you know what xavier needs that for?

-create a reverse NSDictionary/Array from value to key (I know I'll have to ensure the uniqueness of the value on my own if I do that)

What would be the best way to approach this? and maybe some pointer for the following steps;)

I'd still use NSPropertyListSerialization and use another class to get the last two points from above.

agreed, i never use .strings-files because a plist is more dynamic to use.

xavier, just forget those .strings and convert them all to dictionary- plists.
you could even use xml in those files.
