Hi. I tried a lot of stuff, still no result.
So I have the following button created programatically in a subclass of UIViewController:
rightButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
rightButton.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 110.0, 40.0);
rightButton.titleLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:GAME_FONT_NAME_STRING size:20.0];
[rightButton setTitle:@"MyTitle" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
rightButton.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[rightButton setTitleColor:[UIColor greenColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[rightButton setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
[rightButton setBackgroundImage:normalImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[rightButton setBackgroundImage:highlightedImage forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
[rightButton addTarget:self action:@selector(myButton) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self.view addSubview:rightButton];
where the selector is:
- (void)myButton;
I tried everything:
- (void)myButton;
- (void)myButton:(id)sender;
- (void)myButton:(id)sender forEvent:(UIEvent *)event;
- (IBAction)myButton;
- (IBAction)myButton:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)myButton:(id)sender forEvent:(UIEvent *)event;
and the corresponding selectors, of course:
[rightButton addTarget:self action:@selector(myButton) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[rightButton addTarget:self action:@selector(myButton:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[rightButton addTarget:self action:@selector(myButton:forEvent:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[rightButton addTarget:self action:@selector(myButton) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[rightButton addTarget:self action:@selector(myButton:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[rightButton addTarget:self action:@selector(myButton:forEvent:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
The result is always an uncaught exception - [NSObject doesNotRecognizeSelector:]. However, the usual backtrace of the program is:
#0 0x92a6bedb in objc_msgSend ()
#1 0x03b0a430 in ?? ()
#2 0x00306b4e in -[UIControl sendAction:to:forEvent:] ()
#3 0x00308d6f in -[UIControl(Internal) _sendActionsForEvents:withEvent:] ()
#4 0x00307abb in -[UIControl touchesEnded:withEvent:] ()
#5 0x002bcddf in -[UIWindow _sendTouchesForEvent:] ()
#6 0x002a67c8 in -[UIApplication sendEvent:] ()
#7 0x002ad061 in _UIApplicationHandleEvent ()
#8 0x02498d59 in PurpleEventCallback ()
#9 0x01cabb80 in CFRunLoopRunSpecific ()
#10 0x01caac48 in CFRunLoopRunInMode ()
#11 0x02497615 in GSEventRunModal ()
#12 0x024976da in GSEventRun ()
#13 0x002adfaf in UIApplicationMain ()
So what is the problem with that button?
PS: I am using the iPhone SDK 3.1.3
Update!
The following code in the AppDelegate (no declarations in the interface):
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
UIButton *test = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 320.0, 100.0)];
[test setTitle:@"Title" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
UIImage *bg = [UIImage imageNamed:...];
[test setBackgroundImage:bg forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[test addTarget:self action:@selector(testAction) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[window addSubview:test];
[test release];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
}
- (void)testAction {
NSLog(@"Write something...");
}
works perfectly!
But if I create an empty UIViewController with the same code:
- (void)viewDidLoad {
UIButton *test = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 320.0, 100.0)];
[test setTitle:@"Title" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
UIImage *bg = [UIImage imageNamed:...];
[test setBackgroundImage:bg forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[test addTarget:self action:@selector(testAction) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self.view addSubview:test];
[test release];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
}
- (void)testAction {
NSLog(@"Write something...");
}
I get this mysterious error. :-( Help!
