Button's Tag are same in TableView - objective-c

Question

I add view for header, here is my code:
-(UIView*)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
UIView *view = [[UIView alloc] init];
view.layer.borderWidth = 0.5;
view.layer.borderColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:127.0/255.0 green:229.0/255.0 blue:232.0/255.0 alpha:1.0].CGColor;
view.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 0, 150, 50)];
label.text = sectionArray[section];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
label.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0 green:122.0/255.0 blue:1.0 alpha:1.0];
button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(self.myTableView.frame.size.width - 50, 15, 20, 20)];
[button setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"down"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.tag = section;
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(extentFunction) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[view addSubview:label];
[view addSubview:button];
return view;
}
-(void)extentFunction {
switch (button.tag) {
case 0:
NSLog(#"0");
break;
case 1:
NSLog(#"1");
break;
case 2:
NSLog(#"2");
break;
case 3:
NSLog(#"3");
break;
default:
break;
}
}
The question is: the button's tag is same of each header, not the section integer (ex: first header button's tag is 0; second header button's tag is 1)that I want.
What should I do?

Answer 1

As first look its clear issue of local & global variable.
You need to define your button as local variable and use button action sender as button object and get tag from that button.
Look at below code I think it will help you to understand your issue:
-(UIView*)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
UIView *view = [[UIView alloc] init];
view.layer.borderWidth = 0.5;
view.layer.borderColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:127.0/255.0 green:229.0/255.0 blue:232.0/255.0 alpha:1.0].CGColor;
view.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 0, 150, 50)];
label.text = sectionArray[section];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
label.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0 green:122.0/255.0 blue:1.0 alpha:1.0];
//Make Your Button local object not global
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(self.myTableView.frame.size.width - 50, 15, 20, 20)];
[button setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"down"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.tag = section;
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(extentFunction) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[view addSubview:label];
[view addSubview:button];
return view;
}
-(IBAction)btnClick:(UIButton*)sender{
switch (sender.tag) {
case 0:
NSLog(#"0");
break;
case 1:
NSLog(#"1");
break;
case 2:
NSLog(#"2");
break;
case 3:
NSLog(#"3");
break;
default:
break;
}
}
Let me know if its working fine.

Answer 2

This is your custom button code which is correct.
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(self.myTableView.frame.size.width - 50, 15, 20, 20)];
[button setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"down"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.tag = section;
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(extentFunction) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
But you also need to add its sender and event to get the touch location of your button like below code.
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(extentFunction:event:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
Now when you will click on button, extentFunction selector will get called. Now all you have to do is implement your button selector like below code.
-(void)extentFunction:(id)sender event:(id)event{
NSSet *touches = [event allTouches];
UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
CGPoint currentTouchPosition = [touch locationInView:_yourTableViewName];
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [_yourTableViewName indexPathForRowAtPoint: currentTouchPosition];
NSLog(#"%ld",indexPath.section);
}
Hope this will help you out.
