Identifying the string in between two strings in iphone [duplicate]

Answer 1

Use a NSRegularExpression:

NSRegularExpression *regex = [NSRegularExpression regularExpressionWithPattern:@"href=\"(.*)\.zip\"" options:NSRegularExpressionCaseInsensitive error:&error];

NSRange rangeOfFirstMatch = [regex rangeOfFirstMatchInString:yourText options:0 range:NSMakeRange(0, [yourText length])];

if (!NSEqualRanges(rangeOfFirstMatch, NSMakeRange(NSNotFound, 0))) {

    NSString *substringForFirstMatch = [yourText substringWithRange:rangeOfFirstMatch];
    NSLog(@"Extracted URL: %@",substringForFirstMatch);
}
