I've got string like this: {{0,168},{20,20}}, here indicates two points. I want to get them out to initialize my CCPoint. Do you guys know how to convert this?

If the string is in json format, or you can change to it, use a parser: jsoncpp.sourceforge.net –  nosferat Jul 16 '13 at 9:23

An easy fix , if you have string in that specific format:

CGRect rect = CGRectFromString(@"{{0,168},{20,20}}");
CGPoint point1 = CGPointMake(rect.origin.x, rect.origin.y);
CGPoint point2 = CGPointMake(rect.size.width, rect.size.height);

If you have more and you want to get them use this:

NSString *string = @"{{0,168},{20,20},{20,20},{20,20},{20,20}}";
NSRange range;
range.length = string.length - 1;
range.location = 1;
//because you have commas everywhere you need to change it to a different separator
NSString *modString = [[string substringWithRange:range] stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"},{" withString:@"}#{"];

NSArray *pointList = [modString componentsSeparatedByString:@"#"];

for (NSString *str in pointList)
{
    CGPoint point = CGPointFromString(str);
    NSLog(@"%@",NSStringFromCGPoint(point));
}
