Date with Month name Objective-C

I have an NSDate object with value for example: "2011-08-26 14:14:51", I want to display "8 August 2011" how to implement it? Thanks.

Solution 
  • NSDate *date = [NSDate date]; //I'm using this just to show the this is how you convert a date

NSDateFormatter *df = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[df setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterLongStyle]; // day, Full month and year
[df setTimeStyle:NSDateFormatterNoStyle];  // nothing

NSString *dateString = [df stringFromDate:date]; [df release];
