Question

I am creating several UILocalNotifications with different repeatIntervals.

All repeat intervals are assigned using a NSCalendarUnit, like

myNotification.repeatInterval = NSWeekdayCalendarUnit;

I am debugging. When I print the NSArray containing the notifications using

NSArray*  oldNotifications = [app scheduledLocalNotifications];
NSLog(@"alarms = %@", oldNotifications);

I see the notification printed as this:

“{fire date = 2011-09-19
06:26:00 +0000, time zone = Europe/Lisbon (WEST) offset 3600
(Daylight), repeat interval = 512, next fire date = 2011-09-19
06:26:00 +0000}”

Notice that the repeat interval is a number, in this example 512, but it can be 256, 0, whatever.

Where do I find the equivalence of these numbers withe the NSCalendarUnit? I need to know what they are, so I can debug. “Jump to definition” on Xcode does not shows the numbers.

thanks

Duh! I realized I could simple print the values like this:

NSLog(@"NSEraCalendarUnit = %d", NSEraCalendarUnit);
NSLog(@"NSYearCalendarUnit = %d", NSYearCalendarUnit);
NSLog(@"NSMonthCalendarUnit = %d", NSMonthCalendarUnit);
NSLog(@"NSDayCalendarUnit = %d", NSDayCalendarUnit);
NSLog(@"NSHourCalendarUnit = %d", NSHourCalendarUnit);
NSLog(@"NSMinuteCalendarUnit = %d", NSMinuteCalendarUnit);
NSLog(@"NSSecondCalendarUnit = %d", NSSecondCalendarUnit);
NSLog(@"NSWeekCalendarUnit = %d", NSWeekCalendarUnit);
NSLog(@"NSWeekdayCalendarUnit = %d", NSWeekdayCalendarUnit);

… etc

to know the equivalence in integers.
