Getting localized date range string from two NSDates
ios, localization, nsdate, nsdateformatter, objective-c
Solution
After further research it looks like in iOS 8.0+ you can use `NSDateIntervalFormatter` to do this. That doesn't help me now but it's comforting to know it's on the way.
Problem
I'm running into an issue when it comes to taking two `NSDate`s and displaying a localized string for the range. For example, say my dates are on July 7 and July 9. I would need the following localized strings: - EN: July 7-9 - FR: 7-9 Juliet - ES: 7-9 Julio - DE: 7. bis. 9. Juli Obviously using `NSString stringWithFormat:` isn't going to work here. For the sake of simplicity, let's not even get into the case where your range is two separate months. I know how to get a formatted string for each date but it's formatting it in a range that is getting me. Is there way of using an `NSDateFormatter` to get this? The more I look around, the more I think I'm going to need to have a switch for each locale. EDIT: To clarify, I only need the date range for the user's locale. I don't need all of them at the same time.
