How to add text input in alertview of ios 8?

Question

I want to add text input in alert-view of ios 8. I know it was done using UIAlertController but not have any idea. How to do it ?

Answer 1

UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Title" message:@"Please enter someth" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"Cancel" otherButtonTitles:@"OK", nil];

av.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput;

[av textFieldAtIndex:0].delegate = self;
[av show];

also, you will need to implement UITextFieldDelegate, UIAlertViewDelegate protocols.

and if you user uialertcontroller then use this one

UIAlertController * alert=   [UIAlertController
                              alertControllerWithTitle:@"My Title"
                              message:@"Enter User Credentials"
                              preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];

UIAlertAction* ok = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"OK" style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
                                           handler:^(UIAlertAction * action) {
                                               //Do Some action here

                                           }];
UIAlertAction* cancel = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Cancel" style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
                                               handler:^(UIAlertAction * action) {
                                                   [alert dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
                                               }];

[alert addAction:ok];
[alert addAction:cancel];

[alert addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler:^(UITextField *textField) {
    textField.placeholder = @"Username";
}];
[alert addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler:^(UITextField *textField) {
    textField.placeholder = @"Password";
    textField.secureTextEntry = YES;
}];

[self presentViewController:alert animated:YES completion:nil];
