Show iPhone cut copy paste menu on UILabel

Question

1. Can we enable the cut copy paste menu for a UILabel as it is for a UITextField?

2. If not, and I need to convert my UIL

Answer 1

The sample project on github due to @zoul's answer is the way to go. At the time of this writing, that project does not actually put anything on the clipboard (pasteboard). here is how:

Change @zoul's implementation of this method to:

- (void) copy:(id)sender {
    UIPasteboard *pboard = [UIPasteboard generalPasteboard];
    pboard.string = self.text;  
}
