Getting the last day of a month

Question

How can I get the last day of the current month as an NSDate?

Answer 1

// Adapted from running code in my app

NSDate *curDate = [NSDate date];
NSCalendar *currentCalendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
NSRange daysRange = 
[currentCalendar 
 rangeOfUnit:NSDayCalendarUnit 
 inUnit:NSMonthCalendarUnit 
 forDate:curDate];

// daysRange.length will contain the number of the last day
// of the month containing curDate

NSLog(@"%i", daysRange.length);
