Convert TimeStamp to NSDate in Objective-C

Here is a code piece which lets you convert the unix type timestamp to Formatted Date

    

    NSString * timeStampString =@"1304245000";

    NSTimeInterval _interval=[timeStampString doubleValue];

    NSDate *date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:_interval];

    NSDateFormatter *_formatter=[[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];

    [_formatter setDateFormat:@"dd.MM.yyyy"];

    NSString *_date=[_formatter stringFromDate:date];

This will print  _date something like 05.03.2011
