Question

When i invoke the searchBar object into the UISearchBar delegate methods like this, it works fine:

-(void)searchBarSearchButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar{
    NSLog(@"You have taped:%@",searchBar.text);
    [searchBar resignFirstResponder];
    searchBar.showsCancelButton=NO;

}

However, when i try to use it into another method from my own, i got that error:

use of undeclared identifier searchBar

I don’t know why and how to resolve this.

Answer 1

it means you don’t have the searchBar variable defined. You’ll need to create a member variable, probably as an IBOutlet so you can use it outside the scope of that function.
