Question

In my program, there are 5 five button. Different actions will be performed based on the choice of the button. However, I just assign one IBAction to all button. Is there any method that can help me to detect which button the users choose inside a single IBAction? Thank you so much!

Answer 1

Assuming your buttons have their

@property (strong, nonatomic) UIButton *menuButton;

You can change the function like this:

- (IBAction)actionButtons:(UIButton*)sender {
    if ([sender isEqual:menuButton]) {
        NSLog(@"Menu Pressed");
    }
}

This way you can use the tags for something else (I use them to denote in what stage I am of the interface for example)

PD: You might want your button to be weak, i got them linked as strong for a reason.
