Instance Method Details

#val_for(key) ⇒ Object

This extracts values from XML, like that found in .plist files. For example,

%Q{
  <key>SVNPath</key>
  <string>/trunk/src</string>
  <key>SVNRevision</key>
  <string>37609</string>
}.val_for('SVNRevision') #=> "37609"

It doesn’t work for arrays, and probably doesn’t work for boolean values. Patches welcome :)
