Question

I get NSCFData resignFirstResponder – unrecognized selector sent to instance. But why?

@interface { UITextField *Field; } @end
@implementation
-(BOOL) textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField*)textField {
    Field = textField;
    return YES;
}

-(void) viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated
{
    [Field resignFirstResponder];
}
@end

Answer 1

Your text field got released, probably in -viewDidUnload. Then an NSData object was allocated at the same location in memory. Implement -textFieldDidEndEditing: and clear the Field ivar to nil, and the problem should be resolved.
