simple NSDate from string

Question

all I want is a date like this: 01/06/1973 as an NSDate.

I assumed this would do the trick:

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
            [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss"];
            NSDate *myDate =[dateFormatter dateFromString:@"01/06/1973" ];

but my formatting is not being followed

Answer 1

Your code would need to be slighty modified, like this:

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
            [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"MM/dd/yyyy"];
            oldestDate =[dateFormatter dateFromString:@"01/06/1973" ];

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"dd/MM/yyyy"];
NSDate *myDate =[dateFormatter dateFromString:@"01/06/1973" ];

Answer 3

您是否尝试过@“ mm / dd / yyyy hh：mm：ss”作为格式字符串？
