It is possible to show keyboard without using UITe

Question

I am working in iPhone messaging based app.

I want to show keyboard with keyboard inputAccessoryView in keyboard without using UITextView and UITextField. It is possible to do this? Please any one help me on this.

Thanks in advance. Looking forward your help. Thanks.

EDIT:

Because i don't want the UITextField/UITextView and the control to be in UITextView/UITextField. I am going to add inputAccessoryView on the keyboard is UITextView. when the user touches the UITextview in the keyboard inputView the actual process will be continue.

You can try for your answer here:

iphone keyboard without textview

And you can try this also.

    UIKeyboard *keyboard = [[[UIKeyboard alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(0.0f,          contentRect.size.height - 216.0f, contentRect.size.width, 216.0f)] autorelease];
    [keyboard setReturnKeyEnabled:NO];
    [keyboard setTapDelegate:editingTextView];
    [inputView addSubview:keyboard];

Here's another option if this could help you.

See the documentation for doing that here:

Simple Text Input

All you need to do is have your view implement UIKeyInput and call [inputView becomeFirstResponder] when the view is touched. Your view also needs to implement canBecomeFirstResponder and return YES.

Sample code from the iOS documentation which does this.

In xcode simulator:

Sometimes the keyboard wont show because the software keyboard is off. Go to hardware -> Keyboard -> toggle keyboard

For anyone, who wants to show keyboard without UITextField/UITextView for some reasons, could easily extend some view, which requires text input by implementing UIKeyInput protocol and canBecomeFirstResponder method.
