Day Name From NSDate?


I would like to show the name of day in my iPhone application and i don't found the solution. Thanks for help


Solution

  • NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
    [dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"EEEE"];
    NSString *dayName = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:yourDate];
    [dateFormatter release];
    

    You get dayName in the locale of the user.

    (check Unicode standards for date formats samples)
