Objective-C: Reading a file line by line

by

This will work for general reading a String from Text.
If you would like to read longer text (large size of text), then use the method that other people here were mentioned such as buffered (reserve the size of the text in memory space).

Say you read a Text File.

NSString* filePath = @""//file path...
NSString* fileRoot = [[NSBundle mainBundle] 
               pathForResource:filePath ofType:@"txt"];

You want to get rid of new line.

// read everything from text
NSString* fileContents = 
      [NSString stringWithContentsOfFile:fileRoot 
       encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];

// first, separate by new line
NSArray* allLinedStrings = 
      [fileContents componentsSeparatedByCharactersInSet:
      [NSCharacterSet newlineCharacterSet]];

// then break down even further 
NSString* strsInOneLine = 
      [allLinedStrings objectAtIndex:0];

// choose whatever input identity you have decided. in this case ;
NSArray* singleStrs = 
      [currentPointString componentsSeparatedByCharactersInSet:
      [NSCharacterSet characterSetWithCharactersInString:@";"]];

There you have it.
