As always, thanks in advance and sorry about such a bone headed newbie
question. I am reading an NSTextField and want to convert the string value
into an NSData type. I am doing this:
// Read the data from the text field.
theNSString = [[NSSTring alloc] initWithString:[myTextField stringValue]];
// Get the length of the string.
length = [theNSString length];
// Convert the NSString to a C String.
theCString = [theNSSTring cString];
// Convert the C string to an NSData.
theNSData = [[[NSData alloc] initWithBytes:theCString length:length]
autorelease];
I know their is a better way.
