How would you program a Continuous Delete Button?
ios, iphone, uibutton, xcode
Solution
The simplest way of implementing this would be attaching a long press gesture recognizer to your `[Delete]` button.
Xcode lets you attach long press gesture recognizer in the interface builder. Add it to your button, configure the duration of long press, and connect the handler to `IBOutlet` in the same way that you connect other UI events.
If you would rather do it in code, this answer shows you how.
Problem
I'm making a calculator app and am supplying my own keypad with UIButtons. I have a delete key and everything works except that the user has to keep pressing the delete key over and over again if they want to delete all. I was wondering if there is a way to delete everything when the button is held for more than 2 seconds.
