How to call gesture tap on UIView programmatically in swift

Question

I have a UIView and and I have added tap gesture to it:

let tap = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: Selector(\"handleTap:\"))
tap.delegate = self         


        

Answer 1

STEP : 1

@IBOutlet var viewTap: UIView!

STEP : 2

var tapGesture = UITapGestureRecognizer()

STEP : 3

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    // TAP Gesture
    tapGesture = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(ViewController.myviewTapped(_:)))
    tapGesture.numberOfTapsRequired = 1
    tapGesture.numberOfTouchesRequired = 1
    viewTap.addGestureRecognizer(tapGesture)
    viewTap.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
}

STEP : 4

func myviewTapped(_ sender: UITapGestureRecognizer) {

    if self.viewTap.backgroundColor == UIColor.yellow {
        self.viewTap.backgroundColor = UIColor.green
    }else{
        self.viewTap.backgroundColor = UIColor.yellow
    }
}
