Since your string is a UUID string you can do something like this:
NSString *test = @"";
uuid_t uuid;
uuid_parse([test UTF8String], uuid)
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithBytes:uuid length:16];
For the number you can do:
NSInteger test = 1;
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithBytes:&test length:sizeof(test)];
Keep in mind that NSInteger
is probably more than two bytes and you may also need to worry about byte order.
Update: Since it seems you need the integer value to be two bytes, you should do:
uint16_t test = 1;
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithBytes:&test length:sizeof(test)];
This will ensure 2 bytes. You also need to worry about byte ordering so you really need:
uint16_t test = 1;
uint16_t bytes = CFSwapInt16HostToBig(test);
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithBytes:&bytes length:sizeof(bytes)];
Change CFSwapInt16HostToBig
to CFSwapInt16HostToLitte
if appropriate.
