NSArray + remove item from array

Question

How to remove an item from NSArray.

Answer 1

NSArray is not mutable, that is, you cannot modify it. You should take a look at NSMutableArray. Check out the "Removing Objects" section, you'll find there many functions that allow you to remove items:

[anArray removeObjectAtIndex: index];
[anArray removeObject: item];

Answer 2

I think you can make changes only on a NSMutableArray.

Answer 3

NSMutableArray *arrayThatYouCanRemoveObjects = [NSMutableArray arrayWithArray:your_array];

[arrayThatYouCanRemoveObjects removeObjectAtIndex:your_object_index];

[your_array release];

 your_array = [[NSArray arrayWithArray: arrayThatYouCanRemoveObjects] retain];

that's about it

if you dont own your_array(i.e it's autoreleased) remove the release & retain messages
