Getting the last day of a month

Question

How can I get the last day of the current month as an NSDate?

Answer 1

Swift 3.0.1 Version

extension Date {
func lastDayOfMonth() -> Date {
    let calendar = NSCalendar.current
    let dayRange = calendar.range(of: .day, in: .month, for: self)
    let dayCount = dayRange?.count
    var comp = calendar.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day], from: self)
    comp.day = dayCount
    return calendar.date(from: comp)!
    }
}

Answer 2

Workaround Function:

-(int)GetLastDayOfMonth:(NSDate *)date
{
    int last_day = 27;
    NSCalendar *cal=[[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
    NSDateComponents *compsMonth = [cal components:NSWeekdayCalendarUnit | NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit fromDate:date];
    [compsMonth setDay:last_day];
    int month = [compsMonth month]; 
    while(TRUE){
        [compsMonth setDay:last_day+1];
        NSDate *dateFuture = [cal dateFromComponents:compsMonth];
        NSDateComponents *futureComps = [cal components:NSWeekdayCalendarUnit | NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit fromDate:dateFuture];
        if(month != [futureComps month]){
            return last_day;
        }
        last_day+=1;
    }
    return last_day;
}

Answer 3

NSDate *curDate = [NSDate date];
NSCalendar* calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
NSDateComponents* comps = [calendar components:NSYearCalendarUnit|NSMonthCalendarUnit|NSWeekCalendarUnit|NSWeekdayCalendarUnit fromDate:curDate]; // Get necessary date components

// set last of month
[comps setMonth:[comps month]+1];
[comps setDay:0];
NSDate *tDateMonth = [calendar dateFromComponents:comps];
NSLog(@"%@", tDateMonth);

should also work.
