添加到视图的子视图的UIButton无法响应

Question

Been looking for this answer for a while with no luck. From Google to StackOverflow. The only answers I have found so far tell people to call initWithFrame in a view instead of just init. I replaced all my calls to init in UIViews with initWithFrame but I'm not having any luck.

I'm not using IB.

Here is my whole code for that:

@interface UnlockKeyboard : UIView
{
    NSArray *buttons;
    UITextField *passcodeFields;

    UIImage *buttonBackgroundImage;
    UIImage *buttonBackgroundHighlightedImage;
    UIImage *middleButtonBackgroundImage;
    UIImage *middleButtonBackgroundImageHighlighted;
    UIImage *screenBackgroundImage;
    UIImage *keypadViewBackgroundImage;

    UIView *infoView;
    UIView *keypadView;
}
@property(nonatomic, retain)UIImage *buttonBackgroundImage;
@property(nonatomic, retain)UIImage *buttonBackgroundHighlightedImage;
@property(nonatomic, retain)UIImage *screenBackgroundImage;
@property(nonatomic, retain)UIImage* keypadViewBackgroundImage;

@end

@implementation UnlockKeyboard
@synthesize buttonBackgroundImage = _buttonBackgroundImage;
@synthesize buttonBackgroundHighlightedImage = _buttonBackgroundHighlightedImage;
@synthesize screenBackgroundImage = _screenBackgroundImage;
@synthesize keypadViewBackgroundImage = _keypadViewBackgroundImage;
-(id)init
{
    if((self = [super initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 480)]))
    {
        _unlockKeyboardBundle = [NSBundle bundleForClass:[self class]];
        buttonBackgroundImage = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[_unlockKeyboardBundle pathForResource:@"button" ofType:@"png"]];
        middleButtonBackgroundImage = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[_unlockKeyboardBundle pathForResource:@"middleButton" ofType:@"png"]];
        buttonBackgroundHighlightedImage = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[_unlockKeyboardBundle pathForResource:@"pushedButton" ofType:@"png"]];
        middleButtonBackgroundImageHighlighted = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[_unlockKeyboardBundle pathForResource:@"pushedButtonMiddle" ofType:@"png"]];
        keypadView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 200)];
        NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

        NSMutableArray *tempButtons = [NSMutableArray array];
        //self.frame = CGRectMake(320, 480, 0, 0);
        self.backgroundColor = [UIColor lightGrayColor];
        self.opaque = YES;

        UIButton *button1 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button1 setTitle:@"1" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button1.frame = CGRectMake(0, 261, 106, 50);

        UIButton *button4 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button4 setTitle:@"4" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button4.frame = CGRectMake(0, 311, 106, 50);

        UIButton *button7 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button7 setTitle:@"7" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button7.frame = CGRectMake(0, 361, 106, 50);

        UIButton *hint = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [hint setTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Hint", @"Hint string") forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        hint.frame = CGRectMake(0, 411, 106, 50);

        UIButton *button2 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button2 setTitle:@"2" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button2.frame = CGRectMake(106, 261, 108, 50);

        UIButton *button5 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button5 setTitle:@"5" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button5.frame = CGRectMake(106, 311, 108, 50);

        UIButton *button8 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button8 setTitle:@"8" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button8.frame = CGRectMake(106, 361, 108, 50);

        UIButton *button0 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button0 setTitle:@"0" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button0.frame = CGRectMake(106, 411, 108, 50);

        UIButton *button3 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button3 setTitle:@"3" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button3.frame = CGRectMake(214, 261, 106, 50);

        UIButton *button6 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button6 setTitle:@"6" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button6.frame = CGRectMake(214, 311, 106, 50);

        UIButton *button9 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [button9 setTitle:@"9" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        button9.frame = CGRectMake(214, 361, 106, 50);

        UIButton *cancelOrDelete = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
        [cancelOrDelete setTitle:@"<-" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        cancelOrDelete.frame = CGRectMake(214, 411, 108, 50);

        [tempButtons addObject:button1];
        [tempButtons addObject:button2];
        [tempButtons addObject:button3];
        [tempButtons addObject:button4];
        [tempButtons addObject:button5];
        [tempButtons addObject:button6];
        [tempButtons addObject:button7];
        [tempButtons addObject:button8];
        [tempButtons addObject:button9];
        [tempButtons addObject:button0];
        [tempButtons addObject:hint];
        [tempButtons addObject:cancelOrDelete];

        for(UIButton *theButton in tempButtons)
        {
            if([theButton.currentTitle isEqualToString:@"2"] || [theButton.currentTitle isEqualToString:@"5"] || [theButton.currentTitle isEqualToString:@"8"] || [theButton.currentTitle isEqualToString:@"0"])
            {
                [theButton setBackgroundImage:middleButtonBackgroundImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
                [theButton setBackgroundImage:middleButtonBackgroundImageHighlighted forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
            }else
            {
                [theButton setBackgroundImage:buttonBackgroundImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
                [theButton setBackgroundImage:middleButtonBackgroundImageHighlighted forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
            }
            [keypadView addSubview:theButton];
        }
        [self addSubview:keypadView];

        [pool drain];
    }
    return self;
}
-(void)dealloc
{
    [buttons release];
    [passcodeFields release];
    [buttonBackgroundImage release];
    [buttonBackgroundHighlightedImage release];
    [screenBackgroundImage release];
    [infoView release];
    [keypadView release];
    [super dealloc];
}

Like you can see, I subclass UIView with UnlockKeyboard. UnlockKeyboard should have another subview (keypadView) that will contain all the UIButtons. So all in all keyboardView is a subview of UnlockKeyboards, and all these buttons should be inside keyboardView. I can add them just fine, but when I try to tap them, their control state doesn't change. And yes, like you have see, I replaced all calls to init with initWithFrame when creating UIViews.

Any help with this will be really appreciated.

Answer 1

you need to add targets for the buttons so that they know what method to call when you push them. It would look something like this

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

where self is the instance that contains method, and method is the method that is run when the button is clicked.

Hope this works for you

Answer 2

You need to set the image for control state, not the background image for control state:

[btn setImage: [UIImage imageNamed: @"image.png"] forState: UIControlStateNormal];

So it would look like:

[theButton setImage:middleButtonBackgroundImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
            [theButton setBackgroundImage:middleButtonBackgroundImageHighlighted forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];

Answer 3

Since there's no target or action defined for the buttons, the buttons don't know what you want to do. If you did have an action, you could use the action method to change the state of the sender (the sender being the button).

Answer 4

Figured it out. The way I was setting the button frames in regards to keypadView was complete messed up. I had forgotten to do some frame changes to my buttons when I decided to add them to the superview, so the buttons displayed correctly, "but their coordinates were not right" in regards to their touch events. So the actual button was for example in (3,4), but it's touchpoint was in (10,20).

Fixing the frames to play better with the superview fixed my issues
