Question

I am trying to store user input text (in this case a book title) into an array so that I can output it in a table view in another xib.

I’m getting stuck trying to store the “bookTitle.text” info into my “userinfoArray”. I know it probably has a simple solution and I know how to do it in C++ but not in Objective-C. Any tips, links etc. would be great.

Answer 1

NSMutableArray *userinfoArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
NSString *tempString = [[NSString alloc]initWithString:[bookTitle text]];
[userinfoArray addObject:tempString];

you can then access it later with:

[userinfoArray objectAtIndex:0];

NSMutableArray is very flexible. with addObject:object you can add as many things as you want, remove them with removeObjectAtIndex:index.

alternatively if you know what size your array will have you can use a normal NSArray: NSArray Class Reference which will work similar
