Question

Here’s my .h file:

The IBOutlet I am having problems with is the textbox. I would like to retain the value in the textbox as an NSString:

@interface UploaderViewController : UIViewController <UINavigationControllerDelegate, UIImagePickerControllerDelegate> {
    IBOutlet UIImageView *imageView;
    IBOutlet UITextField *textCaption;
    NSString *caption;
}

- (IBAction)pushPick;
- (IBAction)pushUpload;
@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITextField *textCaption;

@end

Where the value is stored in this NSString:

- (IBAction)pushUpload {
    caption = textCaption.text;
}

Answer 1

I think you meant to do something like this:

- (IBAction)pushUpload {
    ;
    caption = [textCaption.text copy];
}
