UILabel doesn't show inputView

Question

I would use a UILabel to allow users to select a date with UIDatePicker.

To do this, I created an UILabel subclass overwriting the inputView and the inputAccessoryVi

You can just ovveride inputView getter method, like explained in Apple documentation:

- (UIView *)inputView {
    return myInputView;
}
- (BOOL)canBecomeFirstResponder {
    return YES;
}

Then add a gesture or a button to call becomeFirstResponder:

- (void)showInputView:(id)sender {
     [self becomeFirstResponder];
}
