strpos-type method


  • Subject: strpos-type method
  • From: Drarok Ithaqua <email@hidden>

I've looked around for a while, and found some posts on CocoaDev, but nothing seems simple.

I'm looking for basic string searching functionality, like PHP's strpos() [http://uk.php.net/strpos].

Or rather, I want to know if a string is contained inside another string. if strpos() returns > -1 (or !== FALSE in PHP)
then the string is at the returned position.


But all I could find was NSString Categories that did a very long winded method, and had a comment with the following code
(Adapted for my app, natch)


if (([[incomingText componentsSeparatedByString:@"(Quit)"] count] - 1) > 0) {
// It's in the string
};


All I want to know is if the text "(Quit)" is in the incomingText NSString instance. Surely this can't be the right way?

Thanks for any help.
