How to convert NSInteger to int

Question

hi,

e.g. NSInteger called a

[a value] is a EXC_BAD_ACCESS

how to convert NSInteger to int ?

(only small numbers < 32 are used)

Answer 1

Ta da:

NSInteger myInteger = 42;
int myInt = myInteger;

NSInteger is nothing more than a 32/64 bit int. (it will use the appropriate size based on what OS/platform you're running)

Answer 2

I'm not sure about the circumstances where you need to convert an NSInteger to an int.

NSInteger is just a typedef:

NSInteger Used to describe an integer.

#if __LP64__ || TARGET_OS_EMBEDDED || TARGET_OS_IPHONE || TARGET_OS_WIN32 || NS_BUILD_32_LIKE_64 
typedef long NSInteger;
#else
typedef int NSInteger;
#endif

You can use NSInteger any place you use an int without converting it.
