Replacement for stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding in ios9?

Question

In iOS8 and prior I can use:

NSString *str = ...; // some URL
NSString *result = [str stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];


        

Answer 1

What is the meaning of "This method is intended to percent-encode an URL component or subcomponent string, NOT an entire URL string." ? – GeneCode Sep 1 '16 at 8:30

It means that you are not supposed to encode the https://xpto.example.com/path/subpath of the url, but only what goes after the ?.

Supposed, because there are use-cases for doing it in cases like:

https://example.com?redirectme=xxxxx

Where xxxxx is a fully encoded URL.

Answer 2

Objective-C

this code work for me :

urlString = [urlString stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters:[NSCharacterSet URLFragmentAllowedCharacterSet]];
