The docs say intValue returns INT_MAX on overflow; the number you're seeing is INT_MAX.
"23456789" doesn't overflow an integer, though, so I'm a little stumped. Is the actual value really 23456789, or is it a number larger than 2 billion?

hi all,

I'm having some really strange issues with converting a NSString to an int.
Examine the following peice of code, and


	// declared elsewhere
	NSString * theKey = @"A23456789";

// problem code
NSString * ttSession = [theKey substringWithRange:NSMakeRange( 1, ( [theKey length] - 1 ) )];
NSLog ( @"%@ == %i", ttSession, [ttSession intValue] );



now I was hoping that it would result in this

	"23456789 == 23456789"

but instead I get

	"23456789 == 2147483647"

and just to make it totally confusing, if I change "theKey" to something different I still get "2147483647" as the value???

im totally stumped, and im sure its going to be something totally silly like "you forgot a comma" or something :D

Cheers

Az
