iOS - can't get rid of keyboard - ios

Question

I have a text field for a user to enter a string, then another text field that when clicked shows a view that slides up with a date picker inside it.
If the user clicks on the first text field and enters a string using the keyboard and then hits the return button on the keyboard the keyboard goes away. But if they click on the date text field after entering a string in the first text field then the keyboard stays on the screen.
I have tried this:
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *nameField;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *dateField;
....
- (BOOL) textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
return(![textField isEqual:self.dateField]);
}
It doesn't work.
I also tried this (this is triggered on begin editing when user clicks on dateField):
- (IBAction)dateTextFieldClicked:(id)sender {
[self.nameField resignFirstResponder];
}
and then this:
- (IBAction)dateTextFieldClicked:(id)sender {
[self.view endEditing:YES];
}
and neither of these works either. Is what I'm trying to do even possible? Should I just give up or is there some way that will work?

Answer 1

Try This ..
- (IBAction)dateTextFieldClicked:(id)sender {
[self.nameField resignFirstResponder];
[self.view endEditing:YES]; }

Answer 2

Try this in your viewDidLoad():
[self.nameTextField addTarget:self action:selector#(nameFieldClicked:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventEditingDidEnd]
And correct the parameter in your dataTextFieldClicked() as
- (IBAction)dateTextFieldClicked:(UITextField *)sender {
[sender resignFirstResponder];
}
I just be an iOS Developer when Apple launched Swift, which means the codes I wrote above maybe have some syntax error, but without logical error.
I hope my answer can help you.

There is a easy way, I had the same problem. Take the dateField as a UIButton, not as UITextField. In the Button action set this as follows:
- (IBAction)Date_set:(id)sender
{
[self.view endEditing:YES];
[self YourDatePickerset];
}
Set the title of the button when DatePicker value changed like this
- (void)pickerChanged:(id)sender
{
NSDateFormatter *dateformate=[[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[dateformate setDateFormat:#"dd LLL yyyy"]; // Date formater
NSString *date = [dateformate stringFromDate:[myPicker date]]; // Convert date to string
NSLog(#"date :%#",date);
[dob_btn setTitle:date forState:UIControlStateNormal];
}

Can you use this snippet and let me tell the result
-(BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField{
[textField resignFirstResponder];
return YES;
}
make sure delegate is set to self for all textfields
Try this also
EDIT
-(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event{
[dateField resignFirstResponder];
[nameField resignFirstResponder];
}
