iOS plist.info: where should I put additional keys

问题:

In my Nativescript app (compiles to Native including plist.info file) I'm trying to add a key to plist.info to solve iOS 9 transport security issues.

The solution I'm trying to apply comes from https://blog.nraboy.com/2015/12/fix-ios-9-app-transport-security-issues-in-nativescript/

Specifically it's about adding the following key to plist.info file:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>  
<dict>  
    <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
    <true />  
</dict>

However during building process I get the following error:

code-Info.plist': The data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format.

Since I'm new to iOS development I guess this is due to a syntax error in the XML file (specifically where to put the code above: before closing plist tag or whatever)

My original plist file (build works) is:

<?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">

    <key>CFBundleDevelopmentRegion</key>

it is plist syntax error

Please use this xml.Open you plist in texteditor and replace your xml code with it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
