Objective-C Sort String Date Array [closed]

Answer 1

Covert NSString date to NSDate object and than sort array based on date

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setLocale:[[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"en_US_POSIX"] autorelease]];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss ZZZ"];

NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:dateStr]; 

NSComparisonResult dateSort(NSString *s1, NSString *s2, void *context) {
    NSDate *d1 = [NSDate dateWithString:s1];
    NSDate *d2 = [NSDate dateWithString:s2];
    return [d1 compare:d2];
}

NSArray *sorted = [unsorted sortedArrayUsingFunction:dateSort context:nil];
