I have a UIColor+MyLayout.m file such as:
@implementation UIColor (Layout)
- (UIColor *) textBackground
{
UIColor *lightGreen = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0f/255.0f green:178.0f/255.0f blue:238.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f];
return lightGreen;
}
@end
I have added the .h file to my viewcontroller.m, but how do I call this into a UIColor?
UIColor *myColor = ?
Would be better if you do the following:
@implementation UIColor (Layout)
+ (UIColor *) textBackground {
UIColor *lightGreen = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0f/255.0f green:178.0f/255.0f blue:238.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f];
return lightGreen;
}
@end
And then just call it UIColor *myColor = [UIColor textBackground];

TRY THIS.... IT IS WORKING!!!!
1. MAke the subclass of UIColor
named vv.
So, in UIColor+vv.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface UIColor (vv)
+(UIColor*)mh;
@end
UIColor+vv.m
#import "UIColor+vv.h"
@implementation UIColor (vv)
+(UIColor*)mh
{
UIColor *lightGreen = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0f/255.0f green:178.0f/255.0f blue:238.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f];
return lightGreen;
}
@end
ViewController.m
#import "UIColor+vv.h"
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
lbl.textColor=[UIColor mh];
}
LET me know if you have any problem.
You should make this method static like...
@implementation UIColor (Layout)
+ (UIColor *) textBackground {
UIColor *lightGreen = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0f/255.0f green:178.0f/255.0f blue:238.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f];
return lightGreen;
}
@end
And then just call it using class name like
UIColor *myColor = [UIColor textBackground];
You should import UIColor+MyLayout.h like
#import UIColor+MyLayout.h
First you have to import your category file in your class like:
#import "UIColor+Layout.h"
Then you need to call this method as
[UIColor textBackground]
Also you need to make your category method as a class method
You can turn textBackground
into class method by using +
in signature instead of -
and then simply:
UIColor *myColor = [UIColor textBackground];
