Question

(I am a newbie on Objective-C, and) I have been trying to pass a pdf name and initialize a class like this:

contCon = [[contentController alloc] initwithPdf:@"mag.pdf"];

and

-(id)initwithPdf:(NSString *)pdfName{ ... }

it gave me no error but pdf name doesn’t come up as I sent it. So i tried to do this:

contCon = [[contentController alloc] initwithPdf:CFSTR("mag.pdf")];

I also couldn’t figure ou how to get this type of data in the method.

-(id)initwithPdf:(CFSTR)pdfName

or

-(id)initwithPdf:(CFSTR *)pdfName

doesn’t seem to work, and google didn’t help me either.

I want to know in what type to pass the name of the pdf file. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

contCon = [[contentController alloc] initwithPdf:@"mag.pdf"];

and

-(id)initwithPdf:(NSString *)pdfName{ ... } 

is better one……
