(just for the case if someone else has the same problem)
 
 
 
1. Subclass NSTextField
 
 
 
2. In your subclass adopt the
 
        - (BOOL) textView: (NSTextView*) textView
 
        shouldChangeTextInRange: (NSRange) range
 
        replacementString: (NSString*) replacementString
 
method.
 
 
 
3. In this method you can access to the ''replacementString'' as ''char'' with the following line:
 
        char c = *([replacementString cString) + 0]; 
 
 
 
4. Then you are free to examinate the conditions...
 
 
 
== Limiting text input length in ''NSTextField'' ==
 
(based on Alexander Malmberg's snippet)
 
 
 
1. Subclass NSTextField
 
 
 
2. In your subclass adopt the
 
        - (BOOL) textView: (NSTextView*) textView
 
        shouldChangeTextInRange: (NSRange) range
 
        replacementString: (NSString*) replacementString
 
method.
 
 
 
3. Create an instance variable setting method:
 
          - (void) setMaxLength: (int) ml
 
          {
 
            maxLength = ml;
 
          }  
 
 
 
4. Then fill your method 2. with this:
 
          int newLength;
 
          /* The exact change isn't known. Disallow the change to be safe. */
 
          if (range.location == NSNotFound)
 
                return NO;
 
          newLength=[[textView textStorage] length]+[replacementString length]-range.length;
 
          if (newLength>maxLength)
 
                return YES; //allowing
 
          else
 
                return NO; // not allowing
