Custom View Xib for MKAnnotationView button tap - ios

Question

I'm making a custom MKAnnotationView and i have a button inside the xib, inwhich i want to get when is touchedup inside.
Although there are questions with the same issue, none of them is working with my code.
I have the following.
class CustomCalloutView: MKAnnotationView {
var didTapGoButton: (() -> Void)?
// MARK: - Detect taps on callout
override func point(inside point: CGPoint, with event: UIEvent?) -> Bool {
let rect = self.bounds;
var isInside: Bool = rect.contains(point);
if(!isInside)
{
for view in self.subviews
{
isInside = view.frame.contains(point);
if isInside
{
break;
}
}
}
return isInside;
}
override func hitTest(_ point: CGPoint, with event: UIEvent?) -> UIView? {
let hitView = super.hitTest(point, with: event)
if (hitView != nil)
{
self.superview?.bringSubview(toFront: self)
}
return hitView
}
#IBAction func viewEventDetails(_ sender: Any) {
didTapGoButton?()
}
func configureCell(events: Events) {
eventName.text = events.eventName
}
}
ViewController
class EventAnnotation : MKPointAnnotation {
var myEvent:Events?
}
func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, didSelect view: MKAnnotationView) {
guard let annotation = view.annotation else { return }
if view.annotation!.isKind(of: MKUserLocation.self){
return
}
if let eventAnnotation = view.annotation as? EventAnnotation {
let theEvent = eventAnnotation.myEvent
let customView = (Bundle.main.loadNibNamed("CustomCalloutView", owner: self, options: nil))?[0] as! CustomCalloutView;
let calloutViewFrame = customView.frame;
customView.frame = CGRect(x: -calloutViewFrame.size.width/2.23, y: -calloutViewFrame.size.height-7, width: 315, height: 298)
customView.configureCell(events: theEvent!)
customView.didTapGoButton = { [weak mapView ] in
print(theEvent?.eventName ?? "noname")
}
view.addSubview(customView)
}
}
func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, didDeselect view: MKAnnotationView)
{
for childView:AnyObject in view.subviews{
childView.removeFromSuperview();
}
}
So when i tap the button nothing is being printed !
Any idea where is my mistake in the code?

Answer 1

I solved it , the idea is to position the customView with in the boundary of the pinAnnotationView image as any click out side of it will be considered a didSelect method call , so play with frame until click detected , it will work either in custom view or viewController
customView.frame = CGRect(x: -calloutViewFrame.size.width/2.23, y: calloutViewFrame.size.height, width: 315, height: 298)
and here is a demo to illustrate the situation
