篇首语：本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理，主要介绍了NSString相关的知识，希望对你有一定的参考价值。

一、NSString.h文件所在
1、 IOS
$1 /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS6.1.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Headers/NSString.h
$2 /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator6.1.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Headers/NSString.h
2、 mac
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Versions/C/Headers/NSString.h
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.8.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Versions/C/Headers/NSString.h

一、NSString 介绍
NSString其实是一个对象类型。NSString是NSObject（Cocoa Foundation的基础对象）的子类，不可改变字符串，NSMutableString为可变的字符串。
NSString 与 char* 最大的区别就是 NSString是一个objective对象,而char* 是一个字节数组。@+" 字符串 " 这个符号为objective-c NSString 字符串常量的标准用法，char* 创建的时候无需添加@。每一个字符串其实是由若干个char字符组成，字符串的遍历实际上就是将字符串中的每一个字符提取出来。
NSString 提供2个消息，length和characterAtIndex
NSString 核心基础接口为CFStringRef

二、NSString 功能细分
1、字符串的比较
2、字符串的截取和大小写
3、搜索字符串与替换字符串
4、字符串中删除元素，插入，追加
5、字符串与指定类型转换
6、字符串编码转换
7、文件字符串操作（读写）

二、NSString.h分析
