Greetings,


When I'm trying to use getObjectValue:forString:range:error: to parse a
string that has a date in it, I'm not getting what I would expect as the
right range back.



For example, in the following code



NSString * substring = @"junk tomorrow";
BOOL gotdate = false;
gotdate = [dateFormatter getObjectValue:&readDate forString:substring
range:&range error:&error];


produces gotdate = YES (so it was able to parse the string and find a date)
and range = 0, 13.



According to the class reference:

*rangep*

If the receiver is able to parse *string*, upon return contains the range
of *string*used to create the date.



My question is why wouldn't range come out to be 5, 13?



Thanks in advance.

-Prentice
