I want the number of Spaces in OSX snow leopard.
If I use 4 spaces, I want that number 4!
I can't find a function or a class related with that.

Not sure why you would vote this one as off-topic. It is a pretty clear-cut [objective-c] tagged question asking for a class/method to get a particular value. – Matthew Schinckel Feb 06 '11 at 08:35

Yeah, I slightly agree with you. However, somehow it solved my problem. – Hwansoo Kim Feb 06 '11 at 08:41

Information about Spaces is stored in Dock preferences. You can access the preferences via NSUserDefaults to get the number of rows and columns, and the number of spaces is the product of those:
NSDictionary *dockPrefs = [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]
persistentDomainForName:@"com.apple.dock"];
int rows = [[dockPrefs objectForKey:@"workspaces-rows"] intValue];
int cols = [[dockPrefs objectForKey:@"workspaces-cols"] intValue];
int nspaces = rows * cols;
