I finally read the whole of what you said here, and I had to run to a playground to check: > import Cocoa > > var strA = "Hello?, String” > var strB = "Hello?, String" as NSString > var strC = "Hello\u{1f650}, String” > var strD = "Hello\u{1f650}, NSString" as NSString > var rangeA = > strA.rangeOfCharacterFromSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceCharacterSet()) // > {Some “7..<8”} > var rangeB = > strB.rangeOfCharacterFromSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceCharacterSet()) // (7,1) > var rangeC = > strC.rangeOfCharacterFromSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceCharacterSet()) // > {Some “8..<9”} > var rangeD = > strD.rangeOfCharacterFromSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceCharacterSet()) // (8,1) So, yes, these are NSString indexes all the way, even if the result is packaged as a Range<String.Index>. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
