Passing arguments to selector in Swift

Question

I\'m programmatically adding a UITapGestureRecognizer to one of my views:

let gesture = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(self.handleTap         


        

Answer 1

Step 1: create the custom object of the sender.

step 2: add properties you want to change in that a custom object of the sender

step 3: typecast the sender in receiving function to a custom object and access those properties

For eg: on click of the button if you want to send the string or any custom object then

step 1: create

class CustomButton : UIButton {

    var name : String = ""
    var customObject : Any? = nil
    var customObject2 : Any? = nil

    convenience init(name: String, object: Any) {
        self.init()
        self.name = name
        self.customObject = object
    }
}

step 2-a: set the custom class in the storyboard as well

step 2-b: Create IBOutlet of that button with a custom class as follows

@IBOutlet weak var btnFullRemote: CustomButton!

step 3: add properties you want to change in that a custom object of the sender

btnFullRemote.name = "Nik"
btnFullRemote.customObject = customObject
btnFullRemote.customObject2 = customObject2
btnFullRemote.addTarget(self, action: #selector(self.btnFullRemote(_:)), for: .touchUpInside)

step 4: typecast the sender in receiving function to a custom object and access those properties

@objc public func btnFullRemote(_ sender: Any) {

var name : String = (sender as! CustomButton).name as? String

var customObject : customObject = (sender as! CustomButton).customObject as? customObject

var customObject2 : customObject2 = (sender as! CustomButton).customObject2 as? customObject2

}
