I want to allow user to search an empty string in searchbar. Whenever user enters any text the search button of keyboard becomes active. However if searchbar is empty then search button of keyboard is inactive. I have tried on below delegates but didn't worked.
- (void) searchBar:(UISearchBar *)theSearchBar textDidChange:(NSString *)searchText {
...
}
- (void)searchBarSearchButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar {
...
}
Any fix for this problem? Sure +1 for correct answer.
A simple way set to search text like below
-(void)searchBarTextDidBeginEditing:(UISearchBar *)searchBar{
//Add a blank character to hack search button enable
searchBar.text = @" ";
}
However this looks bad, its exactly what you want.
You need to customize UITextField
inside UISearchBar
@try {
for (id object in [[[search subviews] firstObject] subviews])
{
if (object && [object isKindOfClass:[UITextField class]])
{
UITextField *textFieldObject = (UITextField *)object;
//textFieldObject.returnKeyType = UIReturnKeySearch;
textFieldObject.enablesReturnKeyAutomatically = NO;
break;
}
}
}
@catch (NSException *exception) {
NSLog(@"Error while customizing UISearchBar");
}
@finally {
}
Here, search is UISearchBar
.
Hope this will work for you ! :)
FYI, this is working great in iOS7 and 8.1.1 too. Not checked with < 7.0 and > 8.1.1
