If anyone has a clue how to use it, I'd be grateful. This was my unsuccessful attempt:

NSExpression * ex = [NSExpression expressionForFunction:[NSExpression expressionForConstantValue:@"BAR"] selectorName:@"length" arguments:nil];

NSPredicate * predicate = [NSCompoundPredicate
    andPredicateWithSubpredicates:[NSArray arrayWithObject: ex]];

[predicate evaluateWithObject:@"FOO" substitutionVariables:nil];

[NSFunctionExpression evaluateWithObject:substitutionVariables:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x68b8af0

NSExpression defines this method:

+ (NSExpression *)expressionForFunction:(NSString *)name arguments: (NSArray *)parameters

and the doco provides this example:

[NSExpression expressionForFunction:(@selector(random)) arguments:nil];


Isn't that wrong? Can you really pass a selector to a NSString argument? The compiler is complaining, and the program crashes when I attempt.

Yeah it is wrong. I believe you just pass a string with the same contents as what you would put in @selector.
