When I am programming a universal app, lets say I have an IBAction like so:
(IBAction)magicCode:(id)sender {
textField1.text = "TEST";
}
Do I need to create a new IBAction for each view (iPad and iPhone). I can’t have textField1 twice in header file, so I am just wondering how everyone else does this. Do I need to put a textfield in the iPhone app with a different name than the one in the iPad app? Or is there some other way everyone else is doing this?
No, you can have the same IBAction and IBOutlet in a UIViewController dealing with textfields in two different Nibs (one for iPhone and one for iPad). That’s the whole point of separation between View Controller and Views in MVC architecture.
Just use the same UIViewController as File’s Owner in both the Nibs and make all the appropriate IBOutlet and IBAction connections and everything will work.
