nsdate

I would like to get the first day of the week depending on a NSDate. It works fine but I have a warning because WeekCalendarUnit is deprecated. I made some research and I tried to replace WeekCalendarUnit with : static var CalendarUnitWeekday: NSCalendarUnit { get } static var CalendarUnitWeekdayOrdinal: NSCalendarUnit { get } static var CalendarUnitWeekOfMonth: NSCalendarUnit { get } static var CalendarUnitWeekOfYear: NSCalendarUnit { get } But I don't have the same result. Here is my junk of code : var date = NSDate() dateFormatter.dateFormat = "dd/YY" let calendar = NSCalendar

I want to implement uilocalnotification in my app. but the problem is that it is not firing at the exact time. it is firing after 30 - 40 secs from the given firing time. Is there something I am missing or this is a common think in UILocalNotification . Thanks UILocalNotification is designed for things that are happening far in the future so an error of 30 seconds would be OK (i.e. if I had a meeting at 15:00 then telling me at 15:00:30 wouldn't be a problem :) If you want more accuracy than that you will need to keep your app running and use an NSTimer.

I have an NSDateFormatter which I use to format an NSDate into a string. The following format does not work: ddMMyyyy_hhmmss_SSS. When I try to format an NSDate I get the following output: 18092014_08:49:03,638, which has a colon and a comma I didn't specify in the format. Note that in iOS 7 I never had this kind of problem. This is the code I'm using: NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [dateFormat setDateFormat: @"ddMMyyyy_hhmmss_SSS"]; NSString *dateString = [dateFormat stringFromDate:exportDate]; iOS8 have serious problem with time format imo. I've just resolved a

I have to send a DDMMYYY date from a Date to communicate with an API. NSDateComponents *dateComponents; NSCalendar *gregorian; NSDate *date; gregorian = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar]; dateComponents = [[NSDateComponents alloc] init]; self.date = [gregorian dateByAddingComponents:dateComponents toDate:[NSDate date] options:0]; Do I have to use the [dateComponents day] and so on? is there some method that can help me to performing that task like in PHP? Try this NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@

I'm trying to get one month from the current date. Below is what I have and it is returning: 4027-09-24 16:59:00 +0000 . currentDate is right. What's going on? // Get todays date to set the monthly subscription expiration date NSDate *currentDate = [NSDate date]; NSLog(@"Current Date = %@", currentDate); NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] components:NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit | NSYearCalendarUnit fromDate:currentDate]; dateComponents.month = dateComponents.month + 1; NSDate *currentDatePlus1Month = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] dateByAddingComponents
