iPhone之NSString常用方法介绍

今天我们介绍iPhone开发的NSString与NSMutableString的常用方法。NSString 的 Class Reference 非常庞大，请参考官方文档：

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSString_Class/Reference/NSString.html

NSString一直使用，但总没有好好整理它的用法。NSString与int，float等类型的转换见：

直接上代码，注释很详细，不多说了：

-(void)testNSString
{
	//初始化 NSString
	NSString * str1 = [[NSString alloc] init];
	str1 = @"This is NSString1";
	NSLog(@"str1: %@", str1);
	//NSString字符串的的长度
	NSLog(@"str1的长度: %d", [str1 length]);
	[str1 release];
	
	//也可以用下面的方法初始化 NSString
	NSString * str2 = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:@"This is NSString2"];
	NSLog(@"str2: %@", str2);
	[str2 release];
	
	//也可以用char *创建 NSString字符串
	char * chr = "This is NSString3";
	NSString * str3 = [[NSString alloc] initWithCString:chr];
	NSLog(@"str3: %@", str3);
	[str3 release];
	
	//创建格式化字符串
	int a1 = 1, a2 = 2;
	NSString * str4 = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"a1= %d, a2 = %d", a1, a2]];
	NSLog(@"str4: %@", str4);
	[str4 release];
	
	
	//创建临时字符串（不用手动释放）
	NSString * str6 = [NSString stringWithString:@"This is a temporary string2"];
	NSLog(@"str6: %@", str6);
	
	
	//注意: 在电脑的根目录下创建! 并不是在模拟器或iPhone真机上创建!
	NSString * path = @"test.txt";
	//NSString 与文件操作
	//写文件
	NSString * str7 = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:@"哈哈 This string is written to a file"];
	NSString * str7_2 = [[NSString alloc] initWithCString:"哈哈 This string is written to a file" encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

	
	[str7 writeToFile:path atomically:YES encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];
	NSLog(@"str7: %@", str7);
	
	[str7 release];
	
	[str7_2 writeToFile:path atomically:YES encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];
	NSLog(@"str7_2: %@", str7_2);
	[str7_2 release];
	

	//读文件
	NSString * str8 = [[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path];
	NSLog(@"str8: %@", str8);
	[str8 release];
	
	NSString * str8_2 = [[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path];
	NSLog(@"str8_2: %@", str8_2);
	[str8_2 release];
	
	
	
	//char *用strcmp比较
	char * chr1 = "char1";
	char * chr2 = "char2";
	if(strcmp(chr1, chr2) == 0)
	{
		NSLog(@"chr1 等于 chr2");
	}
	else
	{
		NSLog(@"chr1 不等于 chr2");
	}

	
	//NSString *用isEqualToString比较（相等返回YES，否则返回NO）
	NSString * str9  = @"String9";
	NSString * str10 = @"String10";
	NSString * str11 = @"String9";
	NSLog(@"str9 isEqualToString:str10: %d", [str9 isEqualToString:str10]);

	NSString * str14 = @"String";
	NSString * str15 = @"string";
	NSString * str16 = @"sting";
	//逐字符按ASCII码比较
	//简记为:
	//如果NSOrderedSame，则前后相等
	//如果NSOrderedAscending，则前小后大
	//如果NSOrderedDescending，则前大后小
