How do you add an action to a button programmatica

Question

I know how to add an IBAction to a button by dragging from the interface builder, but I want to add the action programmatically to save time and to avoid switching back and forth constantly. The solution is probably really simple, but I just can't seem to find any answers when I search it. Thank you!

Answer 1

 CGRect buttonFrame = CGRectMake( x-pos, y-pos, width, height );   //
 CGRectMake(10,5,10,10) 

 UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame: buttonFrame];

 button setTitle: @"My Button" forState: UIControlStateNormal];

 [button addTarget:self action:@selector(btnClicked:) 
 forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

 [button setTitleColor: [UIColor BlueVolor] forState:
 UIControlStateNormal];

 [view addSubview:button];




 -(void)btnClicked {
    // your code }
