call method with variable nr of arguments

[GiddeonZeix]

Hello everybody

i wonder if it is possible to call a method defined in Obj-C
for example NSString stringWithFormat , from F-Script

for example:

nrOfItems := 99
myString := NSString stringWithFormat:'i count %d items',nrOfItems

it works with only one parameter like:
myString := NSString stringWithFormat:'i count %d items'

but i would like to pass multiple parameters

some cocoa classes have such methods

does someone know how to do this ?

thank you in advance

Hi Giddeon,

No, F-Script doesn't support calling methods that take a variable number of arguments at the moment.

For formatting you can use the ++ string concatenation operator:

> myString := 'I count ' ++ (nrOfItems description) ++ ' items'

Getting a little fancier, you could consider the following if you thought it read better:

> {'I count ', nrOfItems, ' items'} @ description \#++
