Remove @“” from NSString or typecast NSString into variable name

Question

I read a NSString from file and then I want to #define this as a UIColor so I can quickly change color\'s.

I want something to work like so:

#define GRAY         


        

Answer 1

You can't do that. Objective-C is a compiled language, so you can't use a NSString as if it were a piece of code. You will need a way to return a proper color from a string/NSString read from a file.
