Read binary plist into NSDictionary

Question

Is there simple way to parse the binary plist file into the NSDictionary representation? I am searching something like that:

NSString* strings = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL: ... encoding: NSUnicodeStringEncoding error: ...];
NSMutableDictionary* pairs = (NSMutableDictionary*)[strings propertyListFromStringsFileFormat];

Using this code caused the exception while parsing the binary plist file.
