kylehowells / NSURL+QueryDictionary.swift

Created November 17, 2014 02:21

Turns an NSURL's -query string into a dictionary. Sadly URL's allow keys to be declared multiple times, so it is a dictionary of String of the keys and arrays of Strings as the objects. [String: [String]]

	extension NSURL
	{
	@objc var queryDictionary:[String: [String]]? {
	get {
	if let query = self.query {
	var dictionary = [String: [String]]()

	for keyValueString in query.componentsSeparatedByString("&") {
	var parts = keyValueString.componentsSeparatedByString("=")
	if parts.count < 2 { continue; }

Get an uint16_t that was stored in an uint8_t* array.

	// uint8_t *buffer [1] & [2] contain the uint16_t bytes.

	uint16_t duration;
	uint8_t* p = (uint8_t)(void)&duration;
	*p = buffer[1]; // 2e
	*(p+1) = buffer[2]; // e5

	//duration now contains 2ee5
	printf("duration: %d", duration);
