For example, in date1 I will store one date after downloading some data, and in date2 , I will store the current date. Then I need to check which one is greater/later: something like if(date1>date2) . Something like: NSDate* timeNow = [NSDate date]; // If less than 30 seconds, do something if ([timeNow timeIntervalSinceDate:anEarlierTime] < 30.0f) { // Do something } PgmFreek you can use NSDate's compare: method:

how can I retrieve the date and time from a NSDate. I want to see them separately. thanks Brodie NSDate *localDate = [NSDate date]; NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init]; dateFormatter.dateFormat = @"MM/dd/yy"; NSString *dateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate: localDate]; NSDateFormatter *timeFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init]; timeFormatter.dateFormat = @"HH:mm:ss"; NSString *dateString = [timeFormatter stringFromDate: localDate]; There are many many different ways to represent the date and time so check NSDateFormatter for more info. i would go with using

How To Add Month To NSDate Object? NSDate *someDate = [NSDate Date] + 30Days.....; TheEye You need to use NSDateComponents : NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [[NSDateComponents alloc] init]; [dateComponents setMonth:1]; NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar]; NSDate *newDate = [calendar dateByAddingComponents:dateComponents toDate:originalDate options:0]; [dateComponents release]; // If ARC is not used, release the date components With iOS 8 and OS X 10.9 you can add NSCalendarUnits using NSCalendar : Objective-C NSCalendar *cal = [NSCalendar currentCalendar]; NSDate *someDate =

I'm trying to work out how to decide if a given timestamp occurs today, or +1 / -1 days. Essentially, I'd like to do something like this (Pseudocode) IF days_from_today(timestamp) == -1 RETURN 'Yesterday' ELSE IF days_from_today(timestamp) == 0 RETURN 'Today' ELSE IF days_from_today(timestamp) == 1 RETURN 'Tomorrow' ELSE IF days_from_today(timestamp) < 1 RETURN days_from_today(timestamp) + ' days ago' ELSE RETURN 'In ' + days_from_today(timestamp) + ' ago' Crucially though, it needs to be in Swift and I'm struggling with the NSDate / NSCalendar objects. I started with working out the time

I have a date converted to double value and saved in database. Now, I want to compare if currentDate > myDataBaseDate + 8 hours i.e., I want to get 8 hours added to myDataBaseDate. I'm converting date into double values. So how do I get 8 hours later time from my database saved date. How do I compare if (currentDateTime > DateFromdatabaseValue + DateByAdding8HoursInDataBase) Tom Jefferys I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to do, but you can create an NSDate object by adding time in seconds on to another NSDate using: - (id)dateByAddingTimeInterval:(NSTimeInterval)seconds // eg. to add 8

I have a basic method which gets the current time and sets it in a string. However, how can I get it to format the current date & time in a UNIX since-1970 timestamp format? Here is my code: NSDate *currentTime = [NSDate date]; NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"hh-mm"]; NSString *resultString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate: currentTime]; Is it possible to use NSDateFormatter to change the 'resultString' into a timestamp? Here's what I use: NSString * timestamp = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%f",[[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970]
