Sorry Graham - I should have mentioned that the color is rgba within the uint32.

Thanks everyone - Robs solution worked great, though I'll have to strip off the # first and then shift to the left a further 8 bits.

Never used NSScanner  before but its a good solution.

Hi,

I have some xml where an rgb color value is specified via a "#XXYYZZ" type string. The xml is being read in via NSXMLParser. I can't seem to find an easy Cocoa way to convert this value to an unsigned int. I need an unsigned int rather than an NSColor as the value is used in C++ code. Does anyone know of something I may be missing?

Thanks!

Peter
