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

I worked out on Xcode 7.3.1 on Swift 2.2. See below.

func addTapGesture() {
    let tap = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(MyViewController.handleTap))
    tap.numberOfTapsRequired = 1
    self.myView.addGestureRecognizer(tap)
}

func handleTap() {
    // Your code here...
}
