IOS中的UITextView和UITextField都是文本输入控件并都能够调用系统键盘。本次特酷把介绍UITextView和UITextField的区别。
简单来说，UITextView和UITextField最大的区别是：UITextView支持多行输入，而UITextField只能单行输入。实际上，UITextView继承自UIScrollView,UITextField继承自UIView[UIControl]。在使用上我们完全可以把UITextView看作是UITextField的加强版。下面是他们各自的代理协议，可以看出，他们的代理协议很相似，事实上用法也相通。
折叠展开C/C++ Code复制内容到剪贴板UITextView的协议UITextViewDelegate:
@protocol UITextViewDelegate <NSObject, UIScrollViewDelegate>
@optional
- (BOOL)textViewShouldBeginEditing:(UITextView *)textView;
- (BOOL)textViewShouldEndEditing:(UITextView *)textView;
- (void)textViewDidBeginEditing:(UITextView *)textView;
- (void)textViewDidEndEditing:(UITextView *)textView;
- (BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)textView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text;
- (void)textViewDidChange:(UITextView *)textView;
- (void)textViewDidChangeSelection:(UITextView *)textView;
@end
UITextField的协议UITextFieldDelegate:
@protocol UITextFieldDelegate <NSObject>
@optional
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField; // return NO to disallow editing.
- (void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField; // became first responder
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField; // return YES to allow editing to stop and to resign first responder status. NO to disallow the editing session to end
- (void)textFieldDidEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField; // may be called if forced even if shouldEndEditing returns NO (e.g. view removed from window) or endEditing:YES called
- (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string; // return NO to not change text
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldClear:(UITextField *)textField; // called when clear button pressed. return NO to ignore (no notifications)
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField; // called when 'return' key pressed. return NO to ignore.
@end
在这里值得一提的是IOS中常常需要有限制用户输入字数的要求，我们可以如下处理：
1，UITextView
我们可以在- (void)textViewDidChange:(UITextView *)textView[检测到输入变化的时候执行]和
- (BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)textView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text[超过一定字数返回NO即可]
2，UITextField
简单的方法只能在 - (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string; 方法中处理。
