你可以很容易地检查字符串是否为空:

if ([yourstring isEqualToString:@""]) {
    // execute your action here if string is empty
}

马克的回答是正确的。但我想借此机会引用Wil Shipley在他的博客上分享的一般化的isEmpty:

static inline BOOL IsEmpty(id thing) {
return thing == nil
|| ([thing respondsToSelector:@selector(length)]
&& [(NSData *)thing length] == 0)
|| ([thing respondsToSelector:@selector(count)]
&& [(NSArray *)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。

//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;
}

你最好使用这个类别:

@implementation NSString (Empty)

    - (BOOL) isWhitespace{
        return ([[self stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]]length] == 0);
    }

@end

简单地检查你的字符串长度

 if (!yourString.length)
 {
   //your code  
 }

发送给NIL的消息将返回NIL或0，因此不需要测试NIL:)。
