I have a string representing a number, and I want to convert it an NSInteger. The problem is, that the string is formatted with thousand separators:

"1,234"

when using [value intValue], I get 1 as the value.

Is it because it thinks the thousand separator is a decimal separator? (my locale uses comma as decimal separator and a space or a dot as thousand separator)

How can I ensure that I get the right number?

    There’s the NSNumberFormatter class which can not only encode numbers, but also decode them according to the current locale.
