nsstring

In the iOS 5 version of my app I had: [self.text drawInRect: stringRect withFont: [UIFont fontWithName: @"Courier" size: kCellFontSize] lineBreakMode: NSLineBreakByTruncatingTail alignment: NSTextAlignmentRight]; I'm upgrading for iOS 7. The above method is deprecated. I'm now using drawInRect:withAttributes: . The attributes parameter is an NSDictionary object. I can get drawInRect:withAttributes: to work for the former font parameter using this: UIFont *font = [UIFont fontWithName: @"Courier" size: kCellFontSize]; NSDictionary *dictionary = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithObjectsAndKeys: font,

How can I have a two-digit integer in a a string, even if the integer is less than 10? [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", 1] //should be @"01" I believe that the stringWithFormat specifiers are the standard IEEE printf specifiers . Have you tried [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%02d", 1]; Use the format string %02d . This specifies to format an integer with a minimum field-width of 2 characters and to pad the formatted values with 0 to meet that width. See man fprintf for all the gory details of format specifiers. If you are formatting numbers for presentation to the user, though, you should

How does one convert NSInteger to the NSString datatype? I tried the following, where month is an NSInteger : NSString *inStr = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", [month intValue]]; NSIntegers are not objects, you cast them to long , in order to match the current 64-bit architectures' definition: NSString *inStr = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"%ld", (long)month]; Obj-C way =): NSString *inStr = [@(month) stringValue]; MadNik Modern Objective-C An NSInteger has the method stringValue that can be used even with a literal NSString *integerAsString1 = [@12 stringValue]; NSInteger number = 13;

I was wondering how to capitalize a string found in an object in an NSMutableArray . An NSArray contains the string 'April' at index 2. I want this to be changed to 'APRIL' . Is there something simple like this? viewNoteDateMonth.text = [[displayDate objectAtIndex:2] capitalized]; Here ya go: viewNoteDateMonth.text = [[displayDate objectAtIndex:2] uppercaseString]; Btw: "april" is lowercase ➔ [NSString lowercaseString] "APRIL" is UPPERCASE ➔ [NSString uppercaseString] "April May" is Capitalized/Word Caps ➔ [NSString capitalizedString] "April may" is Sentence caps ➔ (method missing; see

NSString *x=@"\"/Sagar\' and \'Samir\' "; Now, I want to remove characters between these. \" / \' Intended output x = (should have) @"and \'Samir\'" So, Ms word give some options in find & replace, using wild card characters. ( just giving example ) Is it possible in cocoa? I'll assume you're looking for a solution in general -- not for this particular string. You'll want to learn about regular expressions . For regular expression support in Objective-C check out RegexKitLite . It provides category methods on NSString that support various regex matching and substitution. You could also use

I have a problem identical to this problem here . I even want to encode the same infromation as him (it's a date/time for asp.net)... When ever I try to add a backslash i get two backslashes since I used \. Everyone in the thread above has claimed that this is a problem with NSLog and that NSString does treat \\ as a \ . I have checked this further by using a packet sniffer to examine the packets I'm sending to the webserver and I can confirm that it is transmitting a double backslash instead of a single backslash. Does anyone know how to add a backslash to a NSString? The strings and NSLog

I present a tricky question that I am not sure how to approach. So, I have formulated a plist containing dictionaries which contain two objects: The Country Name The Plug Size Of The Country There are only 210 countries/facts though. And, I have enabled to search through a list of many many countries, in which there might be a fact or not. But here is my problem, I am using a web service called Geonames and the user can use a search bar display controller to search for countries, and these plist country names paired with plug sizes are actually from a Wikipedia article. Now, the country naming
