Using `textField:shouldChangeCharactersInRange:`, how do I get the text including the current typed character?

Question

I\'m using the code below to try and have textField2\'s text content get updated to match textField1\'s whenever the user types in textField1

Answer 1

-shouldChangeCharactersInRange gets called before text field actually changes its text, that's why you're getting old text value. To get the text after update use:

[textField2 setText:[textField1.text stringByReplacingCharactersInRange:range withString:string]];
