iOS: UIActivityIndicator in UISearchBar
ios, search, uiactivityindicatorview, uisearchbar, xcode
Solution
Yes you can.
When start searching create an activity indicator and add it as the subview of `UISearchBar` using `addSubView` method. When you finish the search remove it from the search bar using `removeFromSuperView` method.
UIActivityIndicatorView *spinner = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc] initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleGray];
//set frame for activity indicator
[searchBar addSubview: spinner];
[spinner startAnimating];
