Finding a relative date


  • Subject: Finding a relative date
  • From: Randall Meadows <email@hidden>

Given a specific NSDate, I need to be able to find, say, the Sunday before that date, or the Saturday after that date. I was hoping to be able to use +dateWithNaturalLanguage with something like "Sunday before [myDate description]", but that just returns myDate.

I know I can brute-force it, by figuring out the myDate's day, then walking backward and/or forward, but is there an easier way? One more tried and true, less error-prone, that's calendar-savvy (not that I'm going to need to go as far back as Oct 1582...)?


Thanks! randy _______________________________________________
