nsdate

I have created a calendar in my app, using the date object this way: NSCalendar *gregorian = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar]; NSDateComponents *weekdayComponents = [gregorian components:(NSDayCalendarUnit | NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit)fromDate:[NSDate date]]; NSInteger day = [weekdayComponents day]; NSInteger month = [weekdayComponents month]; NSInteger year = [weekdayComponents year]; m_dateFormatter.dateFormat = @"dd/MM/yyyy"; [gregorian setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:@"UTC"]]; NSDateComponents

I'm trying to get the dates within a given month. My plan is to Get the start and the end dates of a given month,. Get all the dates that fall within that range. Iterate through them and eliminate dates that fall within a weekend using the isDateInWeekend method. The remaining dates are the weekdays. So I created two NSDate extension methods to get the start and the end dates of the month. extension NSDate { var startOfMonth: NSDate { let calendar = NSCalendar.currentCalendar() let components = calendar.components([.Year, .Month], fromDate: self) return calendar.dateFromComponents(components)!

I'm converting a string "Jun 11, 2012 9:30 PM" to an NSDate and I keep getting 4 hours ahead for some reason. The funny thing is I'm using this same string to feed a UIDatePicker in a detailed view where I have to do the same conversion, and the UIDatePicker renders the time fine. Only when I now try to NSLog it in my main and detailed view do I have problems. This is in my views : NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [formatter setDateFormat:@"MMMM dd, yyyy h:mma"]; NSDate *dateFromString = [[[NSDate alloc] init]autorelease]; NSLog(@"DATE %@", _date); dateFromString =

I am trying to produce a date from a string with the following: NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"MMMM dd, yyyy HH:mm:ss"]; NSLog(@"ENDINGDATE: %@", [closure objectForKey:@"ENDINGDATE"]); NSDate *tempDate = [dateFormatter dateFromString:[closure objectForKey:@"ENDINGDATE"]]; The ENDINGDATE NSLog produces the following: ENDINGDATE: April, 21 2011 20:00:00 Everything seems to be fine, so I am stumped as to why tempDate is being set to nil. Any ideas? Thanks! The , is misplaced. It should be after MMMM . So the format should have

I am able to display the current time on my iPad application using the code, NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [dateFormatter setTimeStyle: NSDateFormatterShortStyle]; NSString *currentTime = [dateFormatter stringFromDate: [NSDate date]]; timeLabel.text = currentTime; But this gives the time only when the application is loaded. How do i get the time to keep running? Like a digital clock. Use this: NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [dateFormatter setTimeStyle: NSDateFormatterShortStyle]; [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.0

I am developing a app which uses the date, month, year. I want the current month dates,because current month can have 28,29,30,31 days. I have tried to get current year months. but i don't know the code for above. here is my code. NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; NSDate *today = [NSDate date]; NSCalendar *currentCalendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar]; NSDateComponents *yearComponents = [currentCalendar components:NSYearCalendarUnit fromDate:today]; int currentYear = [yearComponents year]; for(int months = 0; months < 12; months++) { NSString *monthName =

I am working to get the contents of an NSData instance written to a file. I am currently using an Xcode playground. This is my code: let validDictionary = [ "numericalValue": 1, "stringValue": "JSON", "arrayValue": [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5] ] let rawData: NSData! if NSJSONSerialization.isValidJSONObject(validDictionary) { do { rawData = try NSJSONSerialization.dataWithJSONObject(validDictionary, options: .PrettyPrinted) try rawData.writeToFile("newdata.json", options: .DataWritingAtomic) } catch { // Handle Error } } I have a file named newdata.json located in resources but when I check it there is
