comparing indexPaths in a loop iphone

Question

I am trying to compare an index path in my didSelectRowAtIndexPath delegate method with an array of index paths.

for (n=0; n < [tempMutArrray count]; n= n+1){

     NSComparisonResult *result = [indexPath compare:[tempMutArray objectAtIndex:n];

//What I want to do is is write an if statement that executes a certain block of code 
//if the two index paths are equal, but I cant figure out how to work with an 
//NSComparisonResult. 

} 

Answer 1

Use NSOrderedSame and no pointer - NSComparisonResult is just an integer:

NSComparisonResult result = [indexPath compare:[tempMutArray objectAtIndex:n];

if(result == NSOrderedSame) {
    // do stuff
}

In the Cocoa APIs, there are some non-class-types in use. Most important are those from the Foundation data types, which include

• enumerations
• typedefs for integral types
• structures
