Setting target to be the NSObject

Question

I have an NSObject that creates an UIImageView. I add gesture recognizers to the UIImageView but the target is not set to the class itself. I would like to know how to do this.

//inside the init method of the NSObject:
UITapGestureRecognizer* tapRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleTap:)];
tapRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 2;
[theImage addGestureRecognizer:tapRecognizer];


//this method is directly beneath the init method of the NSObject, I want this 
//to be called when the image is double tapped
- (void)handleTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer*)recognizer
{

}

So what is it I need to set initWithTarget: to? it is not self because this crashes the app, yielding a bad access error

Answer 1

If you set the target in the NSObject class the action will not work. SO you have to add the codes in the ViewController.m class then it will work .
