Anyone have some good examples of how to manipulate NSMutableStrings?
I'm looking for things like substring searching, parsing, and the
like. Call me stupid but I can't seem to find anything in the
Developer documentation that I am able to assimilate and make use of
in a reasonable amount of time. If there is an obvious article beyond
the link shown below please share it.
There are articles in that concept that cover searching, comparing,
combining and extracting.
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Strings/
index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/10000035i
Even if you could just type up a really simple example right here in
a short period of time, that would be great. Show me how to create
str2 out of the first X bytes of str1
Right from the doc
You can extract substrings from the beginning or end of a string to a
particular index, or from a specific range, with thesubstringToIndex:,
substringFromIndex:, and substringWithRange: methods. You can also
split a string into substrings (based on a separator string) with the
componentsSeparatedByString: method.
that'd be [str1 substringToIndex:x]
and the follow up by compressing str1 after removing those leading X
bytes.
[str1 substringFromIndex:x+1]
If this question doesn't belong in this forum please forgive me.
It certainly is appropriate topic, but is covered by the doc you
pointed at ("Combining and Extracting Strings")
