xcode - scheduled local notification with time ( Everyday at 6AM )

Question

I'm using Xcode 4.3.2, How can i set this local notification "dateToFire" everyday at 6AM? ``` -(void)notification { UILocalNotification *localNotification = [[[UILocalNotification alloc] init] autorelease]; if (!localNotification) return; // Current date NSDate *date = [NSDate date]; NSDate *dateToFire = //Everyday: 6AM; // Set the fire date/time [localNotification setFireDate:dateToFire]; [localNotification setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]]; [localNotification setAlertBody:@"Notification" ]; [[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:localNotification]; } - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; [self notification]; } ```

Accepted Answer

Use CalendarComponents to set the hour to 6, and set localNotification.repeatInterval to NSDayCalendarUnit

```
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar]; // gets default calendar
NSDateComponents *components = [calendar components:(NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit |  NSDayCalendarUnit | NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit) fromDate:[NSDate date]]; // gets the year, month, day,hour and minutesfor today's date
[components setHour:18];
[components setMinute:0];

localNotification.fireDate = [calendar dateFromComponents:components];
```
