Instance Attribute Details

- (NSTextCheckingTypes) checkingTypes (readonly)

Returns the checking types for this data detector. (read-only) The supported subset of checking types are specified in NSTextCheckingType. Those constants can be combined using the C-bitwise OR operator.Currently, the supported data detectors checkingTypes are: NSTextCheckingTypeDate, NSTextCheckingTypeAddress, NSTextCheckingTypeLink, NSTextCheckingTypePhoneNumber, and NSTextCheckingTypeTransitInformation.

Returns:

  • (NSTextCheckingTypes)

Class Method Details

+ (NSDataDetector) dataDetectorWithTypes(checkingTypes, error:error)

Creates and returns a new data detector instance. Currently, the supported data detectors checkingTypes are: NSTextCheckingTypeDate, NSTextCheckingTypeAddress, NSTextCheckingTypeLink, NSTextCheckingTypePhoneNumber, and NSTextCheckingTypeTransitInformation.

Parameters:

  • checkingTypes (NSTextCheckingTypes)

    The checking types. The supported checking types are a subset of the types specified in NSTextCheckingType. Those constants can be combined using the C-bitwise OR operator.

  • error (Pointer)

    An out parameter that if an error occurs during initialization contains the encountered error.

Returns:

  • (NSDataDetector)

    Returns the newly initialized data detector. If an error was encountered returns nil, and error contains the error.

Instance Method Details

- (Object) initWithTypes(checkingTypes, error:error)

Initializes and returns a data detector instance. Currently, the supported data detectors checkingTypes are: NSTextCheckingTypeDate, NSTextCheckingTypeAddress, NSTextCheckingTypeLink, NSTextCheckingTypePhoneNumber, and NSTextCheckingTypeTransitInformation.

Parameters:

  • checkingTypes (NSTextCheckingTypes)

    The checking types. The supported checking types are a subset of the types NSTextCheckingType. Those constants can be combined using the C-bitwise OR operator.

  • error (Pointer)

    An out parameter that if an error occurs during initialization contains the encountered error.

Returns:

  • (Object)

    Returns the newly initialized data detector. If an error was encountered returns nil, and error contains the error.
