Answer 1

in here you need to follow two steps
you need to create the label and textfield in globally not instance, for e.g
class MainViewController: UIViewController
let label = UILabel()
let textField = UITextField()
hide the instance vale of your allocation
func setupLabel() {
//let label = UILabel()
label.frame = CGRect(x: 40, y: 80, width: 300, height: 60)
label.text = "welcome to my world"
label.textColor = UIColor.yellow
label.font = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 25)
label.textAlignment = .center
label.layer.borderWidth = 2
label.layer.borderColor = UIColor.yellow.cgColor
label.layer.cornerRadius = 5
view.addSubview(label)
}
then you can access the value directly anywhere in your class
func buttonTarget() {
if let text = textField.text
{
label.text = text
}
}
