NSLog and/or CFShow will handle this process for you.

You could do the following: NSDate *today = [NSDate date]; NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [dateFormat setDateFormat:@"EEEE MMMM d, YYYY"]; NSString *dateString = [dateFormat stringFromDate:today]; [dateFormat release]; ... NSLog(@"Date: %@", dateString); printf("Date: %s", [dateString cString]); Why not just use printf? You could do the following:

NSDate *today = [NSDate date];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:@"EEEE MMMM d, YYYY"];
NSString *dateString = [dateFormat stringFromDate:today];
[dateFormat release];

…

NSLog(@”Date: %@”, dateString);
printf(“Date: %s”, [dateString cString]);
