retrieve address using MKReverseGeocoder

Question

I am trying to retrieve the user address using MKReverseGeocoder. It works fine, but I am not getting the address in the proper format.

code:

- (void)reverseGeocoder:(MKReverseGeocoder *)geocoder didFindPlacemark:(MKPlacemark *)placemark{
    NSLog(@"Geocoder completed");
    NSLog(@"%@",[placemark.addressDictionary objectForKey:@"FormattedAddressLines"]);
}

Output:

(
    "Almungev\U00e4gen 33",
    "Tempe, AZ 85281",
    USA
)

Why am i getting those strange characters in street name ? How can i change it to a readable format?

Help would be appreciated.

In

  - (void)reverseGeocoder:(MKReverseGeocoder *)geocoder didFindPlacemark:(MKPlacemark *)placemark

   {
   Nsstring*subLocalityStr= placemark.subLocality;
   Nsstring*subAdministrativeAreaStr= placemark.subAdministrativeArea;

   }

similarly you can get using dot notation which will give list of available methods from that you can select what you want ..

I want the complete address. So i get each and append them later? – Neelesh Aug 05 '11 at 07:59
Isnt there an simple way to get the entire address, rather than appending each string ? – Neelesh Aug 05 '11 at 08:05
sorry ,i find this alone possible. you can get entire address if you follow above – Narayanan Ramamoorthy Aug 05 '11 at 10:29
