copied!<p>I am kind of new to iOS development.</p> <p>I want to retrieve strings from the text(.rtf) file I have. The file is within my application main bundle. It's content are:</p> <pre><code>#start word1 First word end word2 Second word end //lots of things to be added later </code></pre> <p>Code:</p> <pre><code> path = [[NSBundle mainBundle]pathForResource:@"words" ofType:@"rtf"]; if(path) { NSLog(@"path exists"); } NSError *error = nil; NSString *file = [[NSString alloc]initWithContentsOfFile:path encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:&error]; if(error) { NSLog(@"error"); } NSString *finalword= [[NSString alloc]init ]; NSString *startfrom = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"word%i",i+1]; i++; NSLog(@"%@",startfrom); NSString *wordoftheday = [[NSString alloc]init ]; NSScanner *scanner = [NSScanner scannerWithString:file]; [scanner scanUpToString:startfrom intoString:nil]; [scanner scanUpToString:@"end" intoString:&wordoftheday]; finalword = [wordoftheday substringFromIndex:[startfrom length]]; NSLog(@"%@",finalword); Word.text = final word; //change label text //[final word release]; //[wordoftheday release]; //[file release]; </code></pre> <p>Code is working fine but it leaves me with memory management issues. App crashes if I release the variables in the last commented code.</p> <p>Also this method is in my viewdidload. I want the label to change text when user click a button. I will have to write the same code again in that method which leaves me with more memory issue.</p>
