I have a an NSInteger in my application called score and i want to show the score integer in a UILabel. I Tried the formatWithObject method but for some reason it did't work.

ScoreLabel.text = [NSString formatWithObject😡"%d", (int) score];

Any help is appreciated.

Code:

NSString *scoreString = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"%d", score];
ScoreLabel.text = scoreString;
[scoreString release];
[COLOR="Green"]//you can also use %i conversions for integers[/COLOR]

That's because NSString has no formatWithObject: class method. In fact, nothing does. You're gonna want to avoid making up your own API methods and stick to the ones provided to you.

Try this:

textbox.text=[NSString stringWithFormat😡"%i", integervariable];
