I want to get number as it is with "-" " " "." while picking up a contact from phone book here's my code .
My main motive is to extract the country code from the number if + is present.
Also please suggest me if there is any other way to access country code.
- (BOOL)peoplePickerNavigationController:(ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker shouldContinueAfterSelectingPerson:(ABRecordRef)person property:(ABPropertyID)property identifier:(ABMultiValueIdentifier)identifier;
{
if (property == kABPersonPhoneProperty) {
ABMultiValueRef multiPhones = ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonPhoneProperty);
for(CFIndex i = 0; i < ABMultiValueGetCount(multiPhones); i++) {
if(identifier == ABMultiValueGetIdentifierAtIndex (multiPhones, i)) {
CFStringRef phoneNumberRef = ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(multiPhones, i);
CFRelease(multiPhones);
NSString *phoneNumber = (__bridge NSString *) phoneNumberRef;
CFRelease(phoneNumberRef);
if ([phoneNumber rangeOfString:@"+"].location == NSNotFound) {
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"(" withString:@""];
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@")" withString:@""];
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@" " withString:@""];
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"-" withString:@""];
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"." withString:@""];
self.lblMobileNumber.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", phoneNumber];
} else {
NSArray *PhoneNumberComponents = [phoneNumber componentsSeparatedByString:@" "];
NSString * strCountryCode = PhoneNumberComponents[0] ;
[self.btnCountryCode setTitle:strCountryCode forState:UIControlStateNormal];
phoneNumber= [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:PhoneNumberComponents[0] withString:@""];
NSLog(@"countryCodeSepratedStr%@",phoneNumber);
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"(" withString:@""];
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@")" withString:@""];
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@" " withString:@""];
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"-" withString:@""];
phoneNumber = [phoneNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"." withString:@""];
self.lblMobileNumber.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", phoneNumber];
}
}
}
}
return NO;
}
I wouldn't be inclined do any of that string manipulation stuff, but just use regular expression to look for
+
followed by number at start of the string, using capturing parentheses to grab just the country code:
