- (void)sendActionsForControlEvents:(UIControlEvents)controlEvents
Parameters: controlEvents
A bitmask whose set flags specify the control events for which action messages are sent. See Control Events for bitmask constants.
Description:Sends action messages for the given control events.UIControl implements this method to send all action messages associated with controlEvents,
repeatedly invoking sendAction:to:forEvent: in the process.
The list of targets and actions it looks up is constructed from prior invocations of addTarget:action:forControlEvents:.
Eg:
To call a method MySecretMethod in newViewController
[newViewController.button addTarget: self
action: @selector (MySecretMethod)
forControlEvents: UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
Method 1: declare MySecretMethod in .h of newViewController and call it
by its object (so it wont be secret as can be accessed from anywhere.)
[newViewController MySecretMethod];
Method 2: declare button in .h of newViewController and call button action using following statement
[newViewController.button sendActionsForControlEvents: UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
Looping SuperView
You can add or change the button action by looping superview view using addTarget:action:forControlEvents:
for(UIButton *aButton in self.view.subviews){
if([aButton isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]]){
[aButton addTarget: self
action:@selector(buttonClick:)
forControlEvents: UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
}
}
