Find the index of a character in a string
22,955
Solution 1
To print the characters before the first right paren, you can do this:
NSString *str = [[yourString componentsSeparatedByString:@")"] objectAtIndex:0];
NSLog(@"%@", str);
// If you need the character index:
NSUInteger index = str.length;
Solution 2
U can find index of the character ")" like this:
NSString *Original=@"88) 12-sep-2012";
NSRange range = [Original rangeOfString:@")"];
if(range.location != NSNotFound)
{
NSString *result = [Original substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(0, range.location)];
}
Solution 3
You can use the following code to see the characters before ")"
// this would split the string into values which would be stored in an array
NSArray *splitStringArray = [yourString componentsSeparatedByString:@")"];
// this would display the characters before the character ")"
NSLog(@"%@", [splitStringArray objectAtIndex:0]);
Solution 4
try the below code to get the index of a particular character in a string:-
NSString *string = @"88) 12-sep-2012";
NSCharacterSet *charSet = [NSCharacterSet characterSetWithCharactersInString:@")"];
NSRange range = [string rangeOfCharacterFromSet:charSet];
if (range.location == NSNotFound)
{
// ... oops
}
else {
NSLog(@"---%d", range.location);
// range.location is the index of character )
}
and to get the string before the ) character use this:-
NSString *str = [[string componentsSeparatedByString:@")"] objectAtIndex:0];
Solution 5
NSUInteger index = [Original rangeOfString:@")"];
NSString *result = [Original substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(0, index)];

I have a string
NSString *Original=@"88) 12-sep-2012";
orOriginal=@"8) blablabla";
I want to print only the characters before the ")" so how to find the index of the character ")". or how could i do it?
Thanks in advance.
