error : 'Attempt to mutate immutable object with appendString:' --

Question

I am getting an error 'Attempt to mutate immutable object with appendString:'

and my code is

NSMutableString *resultString= [[NSMutableString alloc]init];


for (NSMutableString *s in self.ArrayValue)
{
    [resultString appendString:s];
    NSLog(resultString);

}  

ArrayValue is NSMutableArray.
I am not able to understand where is the problem

thank you in advance

Answer 1

As posted, the code you have will not give you the error you describe. Probably, somewhere between allocating resultString and the for loop, you are overwriting it with a normal NSSring.

Answer 2

Just do have like this:

It works for me...

    NSMutableString *resultString= [[NSMutableString alloc]init];
NSMutableArray *ArrayValue=[[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
[ArrayValue addObject:@"One"];
[ArrayValue addObject:@"Two"];
[ArrayValue addObject:@"Three"];

for (NSMutableString *s in ArrayValue)
{
    [resultString appendString:s];
    NSLog(@"%@",resultString);------->You should use %@ to print the string otherwise will show your warning.

}  

O/P on Console:

Answer 3

    ArrayValue = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:@"b",@"o",@"n",nil];
NSMutableString *resultString= [[NSMutableString alloc]init];

for (NSMutableString *s in self.ArrayValue)
{
    [resultString appendString:s];
    NSLog(resultString);

}  

works for me..
