How to get NSDate day, month and year in integer format?

Question

I want to get the day, month and year components of NSDate in integer form i.e. if the date is 1/2/1988 then I should get 1, 2 and 1988 separately as an integer

Answer 1

U can try this .......

Mycal = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
today = [NSDate date];
compA =[Mycal components:(NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit | NSYearCalendarUnit | NSWeekdayCalendarUnit) fromDate:today];     
FirstDateofMonth=[today dateByAddingTimeInterval:([compA day]-1)*(-24*60*60)];

compA =[Mycal components:(NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit | NSYearCalendarUnit | NSWeekdayCalendarUnit) fromDate:FirstDateofMonth];
today = FirstDateofMonth;
compA = [Mycal components:(NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit | NSYearCalendarUnit | NSWeekdayCalendarUnit) fromDate:today];
[compA setMonth:([compA month])];
[self DrawMonthInPortraitView];
[compA retain];
