//Different validations:
 NSString * inputStr = @"Hey ";

//Check length
[inputStr length]

//Coming from server, check if its NSNull
[inputStr isEqual:[NSNull null]] ? nil : inputStr

//For validation in allowed character set
-(BOOL)validateString:(NSString*)inputStr
{
    BOOL isValid = NO;
    if(!([inputStr length]>0))
    {
        return isValid;

    }

    NSMutableCharacterSet *allowedSet = [NSMutableCharacterSet characterSetWithCharactersInString:@".-"];
    [allowedSet formUnionWithCharacterSet:[NSCharacterSet decimalDigitCharacterSet]];
    if ([inputStr rangeOfCharacterFromSet:[allowedSet invertedSet]].location == NSNotFound)
    {
        // contains only decimal set and '-' and '.'

    }
    else
    {
        // invalid
        isValid = NO;

    }
    return isValid;
}

可能这个答案是已经给出的答案的副本，但我在检查条件的顺序上做了一些修改和更改。请参考以下代码:

+(BOOL)isStringEmpty:(NSString *)str {
     if(str == nil || [str isKindOfClass:[NSNull class]] || str.length==0) {
            return YES;
       }
      return NO;
  }

非常有用的帖子，添加NSDictionary支持以及一个小的变化

static inline BOOL isEmpty(id thing) {
    return thing == nil
    || [thing isKindOfClass:[NSNull class]]
    || ([thing respondsToSelector:@selector(length)]
        && ![thing respondsToSelector:@selector(count)]
        && [(NSData *)thing length] == 0)
    || ([thing respondsToSelector:@selector(count)]
        && [thing count] == 0);
}

你有两个方法来检查字符串是否为空:

让我们假设你的字符串名字是NSString *strIsEmpty。

方法1:

if(strIsEmpty.length==0)
{
    //String is empty
}

else
{
    //String is not empty
}

方法2:

if([strIsEmpty isEqualToString:@""])
{
    //String is empty
}

else
{
    //String is not empty
}

选择上述任何一种方法，了解字符串是否为空。

只需将字符串传递给以下方法:

+(BOOL)isEmpty:(NSString *)str
{
    if(str.length==0 || [str isKindOfClass:[NSNull class]] || [str isEqualToString:@""]||[str  isEqualToString:NULL]||[str isEqualToString:@"(null)"]||str==nil || [str isEqualToString:@"<null>"]){
        return YES;
    }
    return NO;
}

斯威夫特版本

即使这是一个Objective C问题，我需要在Swift中使用NSString，所以我也会在这里包括一个答案。

let myNSString: NSString = ""

if myNSString.length == 0 {
    print("String is empty.")
}

或者NSString是可选的:

var myOptionalNSString: NSString? = nil

if myOptionalNSString == nil || myOptionalNSString!.length == 0 {
    print("String is empty.")
}

// or alternatively...
if let myString = myOptionalNSString {
    if myString.length != 0 {
        print("String is not empty.")
    }
}

正常的Swift String版本是

let myString: String = ""

if myString.isEmpty {
    print("String is empty.")
}
