Get value from NSTextField

For an NSString you would use:

NSString *myString = [theTextField stringValue];

For an int you would use:

int myInt = [theTextField intValue];

There are many other methods for getting the value from a control. Have a look at the NSControl reference for more info, under the “Getting and Setting the Control’s Value” section.

Here’s a list:

• doubleValue
• floatValue
• intValue
• integerValue
• objectValue
• stringValue
• attributedStringValue
