Encode NSString for XML/HTML

Question

Is there a way to HTML encode a string (NSString) in Objective-C, something along the lines of Server.HtmlEncode in .NET?

Answer 1

If you can use NSXMLNode (on OS X) Here is the trick:

NSString *string = @"test"
NSXMLNode *textNode = [NSXMLNode textWithStringValue:string];
NSString *escapedString = [textNode.XMLString];
