I’ve read through a lot of examples, but the problem I’m facing is the date I’m getting doesn’t have leading 0’s and all the objective-c stuff I’ve found has them. So I need to take the date:
4/9/2012 1:30 PM
And determine if it is today. My place was to either grab today’s date and compare it to the first part of that string, but as I said before I can’t find anyway to make a date in objective c without leading 0’s. I’m hoping to avoid parsing that string manually to add leading 0’s.
I think that using the single M option for your date format string will allow it to parse a single digit month value:
