Never mind... this is a known bug. See:

http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1202.html

I think I've found a bug in stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet...

I have a text field named "FirstNameField" in which the user can type in a name for searching. You can type in one or more letters, and the search algorithm will match whatever you know. What I discovered was that if you type in a search string and a space, the search algorithm returns nothing. No problem... I put in a "stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet" command while querying the field, like so:

[options appendString: [[FirstNameField stringValue]
stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:
[NSCharacterSet whitespaceCharacterSet]]];
NSLog(@"FirstNameField: %@\n",
[[FirstNameField stringValue] stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:
[NSCharacterSet whitespaceCharacterSet]]);
NSLog(@"FirstNameField: %@\n", [FirstNameField stringValue]);

When I put in two or more letters into the field, it works fine:

2003-09-25 16:04:31.582 MegaPhone[1227] FirstNameField: St
2003-09-25 16:04:31.582 MegaPhone[1227] FirstNameField: St

When I put in a single letter, it doesn't:

2003-09-25 16:05:01.412 MegaPhone[1227] FirstNameField:
2003-09-25 16:05:01.413 MegaPhone[1227] FirstNameField: S

The single letter is trimmed. This doesn't make sense. Any ideas?

Thanks!
