Question

I’m trying to get my app a little more dynamic. I’m trying to declare a function in a class that is supposed to get instantiated and used by a few other classes i have.

At the moment i’m doing this.

// FunkBib.h

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>


@interface FunkBib : NSObject {        
}
-(NSString *)formateraTillEEEEdMMMM:(id)suprDatum;
@end

// FunkBib.m

-(NSString *)formateraTillEEEEdMMMM:(id) suprDatum{        

    NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
    dateFormatter.dateFormat = @"yyyyMMdd";        

    NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:suprDatum];        

    NSLocale *swedishLocale=[[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"sv_SE"] autorelease];
    dateFormatter.locale=swedishLocale;        

    dateFormatter.dateFormat=@"EEEE d MMMM";
    NSString * weekdayString= [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];

    NSString *newWeekDayString = [weekdayString stringByReplacingCharactersInRange:NSMakeRange(0,1) withString:[[weekdayString substringToIndex:1] capitalizedString]];

    return newWeekDayString;        
}

Meanwhile in my other classes i do this.

//someclass.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>    

@class FunkBib;

@interface someclass : UIViewController {    

FunkBib *funkBib;

}
@property(nonatomic,retain)     FunkBib                         *funkBib;    
@end

// someclass.m

#import "FunkBib.h"    
@implementation someclass.m    
@synthesize funkBib;

And at a later point in the code i’d like to use this function like this.

somelabel.text = [funkBib formateraTillEEEEdMMMM:[someArray objectAtIndex:somewhere]];

I have no direct idea why this is not working. Anyone have any general pointers about how i might solve this?

BTW: The code is not copy-pasted, so there may be syntax errors.

Answer 1

create instance for FunBib

-(void)viewDidLoad{
[super viewDidLoad];
self.funkBib=[[FunkBib alloc] init];
somelabel.text = [self.funkBib formateraTillEEEEdMMMM:[someArray objectAtIndex:somewhere]];
}
