Possible use of NSScanner to separate data

Question

I am parsing some XML data and one of the elements contains several URLs that are separated by commas which point to JPG files. How would I go about separating each URL from the string and assigning it to a variable so that I can pull individual pictures? I was thinking NSScanner would work because it scans through strings looking for certain characters but I'm not entirely sure. I also read that regular expressions are a possibility as well. Thoughts on where I should start? Has anyone else needed to separate URLs from a string as well? Also, here is an example of the XML file for reference.

Answer 1

From you example, supposing that you did all the rest of the parsing, and you got:

NSString *allURLs = @"http://image1.jpg,http://image2.jpg,http://image3.jpg";

You can get all your URLs in a array (useful for loops) like this:

NSArray *arrayOfImagesURLs = [allURLs componentsSeparatedByString:@","];
