I have sort of 2 questions to do with strings. Say I have a string
nameOfToday that the program has previously filled with the name of
todays date. I then want to create a string from this that says
something like:
Today is Monday.
So I need to get the first bit of string: "Today is "
Add on to it nameOfToday
And then append on to that "."
What would be the best way of achieving this? I am looking at
stringWithFormat of NSString. Would this be the best choice?
My other question is that if I do use this method, is the string that
it returns autoreleased? I see no mention of this in the
documentation, so I'm wondering if I'd have to manually autorelease
it myself.
To answer this question, since it hasn't been answered by previous
replies: The returned string is autoreleased for you. More on this here:
