[ Read Text file in iphone ]
I want to read text file that is placed on server. for example my file is placed on this link: http://mysite.com/files/objects.txt
How can I read the contents of this file into NSString
?
Answer 1
Try this:
NSError* e;
NSString* str = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:@"http://mysite.com/files/objects.txt" encoding:NSASCIIEncoding error:&e]
if(e != nil) {
//There was an error
}
//Everything good
Answer 2
Note the syntax has changed with recent iOS updates...
NSError* err;
NSURL* url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"<your URL goes here>"];
NSString* str = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:url
encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding
error:&err];
