Custom UIButton for Iphone

Question

I have an view in my App which has a number of buttons based on the number of items returned by the server. So if the server returns say 10 items, there should be 10 buttons

Answer 1

you can use individual class for custom Roundrect button which can be useful in whole project with your specific frame style as below

#import 
#import 
@interface CustomRoundRectButton : UIButton
@end


#import "CustomRoundRectButton.h"
@implementation CustomRoundRectButton
- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect
{
[[self layer] setMasksToBounds:YES];
[self.layer setCornerRadius:10.0f]; 
[self.layer setBorderColor:[UIColor grayColor].CGColor]; 
[self.layer setBorderWidth:1.0];
}
@end

In this you have to select button type custom and select its class as CustomRoundRectButton.

For Simple custom button we can use as below

-(UIBarButtonItem*)BackButton
{
UIButton*btn =  [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[btn setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"back.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btn setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 30, 30)];
[btn addTarget:self action:@selector(actionBack) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem*barBtn = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:btn] autorelease];
return barBtn;
}
