Getting the last day of a month

Question

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

Answer 1

Swift version

extension NSDate {
    func lastDayOfMonth() -> NSDate {
        let calendar = NSCalendar.currentCalendar()
        let dayRange = calendar.rangeOfUnit(.Day, inUnit: .Month, forDate: self)
        let dayCount = dayRange.length
        let comp = calendar.components([.Year, .Month, .Day], fromDate: self)

        comp.day = dayCount

        return calendar.dateFromComponents(comp)!
    }
}
