This is not a good approach for a number of reasons.
First, Unicode distinguishes between a code point (an encoded
character), a code unit (one 16-bit unichar), and a grapheme
cluster (what the user thinks of as a character). They're all
different. A grapheme cluster may consist of one or
I'm a newbie myself but this might help you:
As far as I know,
[ob characterAtIndex:num]
(replacing num with the character you are after)
..will extract the single character at index num.
For example:
NSLog(@%c,[ob characterAtIndex:i]);
Outputs to the console that character in
Hi,I want to retrieve characters from NSString Can any one guide me how to

Hi!
Would -[NSString getCharacters:] or -[NSString getCharacters:range]
(both of which return a unichar array), or better yet -[NSString
getCString:maxLength:encoding:] work for your purposes?
Even better still, perhaps one of
- [NSString cStringUsingEncoding:]
-
Not to reply to myself, but -- erm -- that second one should be -
[NSString getCharacters:range:] -- with a second colon (this one after
range). Also, sorry for top-posting, but I had to since I neglected
to bottom post in my original reply.

What do you mean by that? If you want to translate an NSString into a
C char array, then use -UTF8String. If you want to get a range of 2-
byte characters
12 matches
