> Regular Expressions are a really powerful tool, and the absence of support for regular expressions in the iPhone SDK seems to be a glaring omission.
NSRegularExpression was added to the iOS SDK in 4.0.
Not available if you still aim to be 3.x-compatible (for iPhones and first-gen Touch), but 4.0 has been out for 9 months now, I think it's time to bury this one (note: you could still find NSRegularExpression insufficient or inferior to RKL, that's a different issue).
Sure, as I said you can find RegexKitLite superior for a variety of reasons, but that's different from the original complaint that the iOS SDK ships without regex support.
iOS 3.2 is not available for the iPhone and iPod touches, if I'm not mistaken, so you would still only be targeting iPads that have failed to update to 4.2.1 and/or 4.3.
