I'm using UISearchBar
when I input text on UISearchBar
the keyboard shows. At that time, keyboard return key is "Search".
I want to implement event when I press the keyboard search button.
How can I implement the action?
On UITextField
it has
-(BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField;
But on UISearchBar
it doesn't have return action.
Thank you for your helping.
Add UISearchBarDelegate in .h
Also set SearchBar's object delegate to self.
Add this to the UISearchBarDelegate's method:
- (void)searchBarSearchButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar
{
[searchBar resignFirstResponder];
// Do the search...
}
Swift
func searchBarSearchButtonClicked(_ searchBar: UISearchBar) {
searchBar.resignFirstResponder()
}
In Swift 3:
func searchBarSearchButtonClicked(_ searchBar: UISearchBar) {
searchBar.resignFirstResponder()
}
The textFieldShouldReturn
method is a textField
delegate method and not the one you're looking for. What you need is a UISearchBarDelegate
method called searchButtonClicked
, have a look here.
