how to pass multiple tags to addTarget:action:forControlEvents?

Question

I know the code i have written is wrong. but i want something like this. How to do it?

UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
int totalcout = 0;
int passValue ;
for(int j=0; j<5; j++{
    for(int i=0; i<5; i++)
    {
        totalcout++;
        if(totalcount >1){
          break;
        }else{
        passValue = i;
        }
    }
    button.tag = j;
    [button addTarget:self action:@selector(button:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
}


- (IBAction) button:(UIButton *)sender {
    NSLog(@"tag numbers are  %d", sender.tag);

    detailViewController.mutableArray1 = [oneMutableArray objectAtIndex:sender.tag];
    detailViewController.mutableArray2 = [twoMutableArray objectAtIndex:passValue];
}

I hope the question is clear. Thank you in advance

Answer 1

i got your question.. you can't directly assign two tags to any UIView or any subclass directly. but you can achieve indirectly may this code helps to achieve your intension to get two tags at the end

    #define First_Tag  100
    #define Second_Tag 200
  -(void)createButton
     {
    UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
    button.tag = ((First_Tag*10000)+30000)+(Second_Tag*10);
   [button addTarget:self action:@selector(button:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
      }

 - (void) button:(UIButton *)sender 
 {
   int intTag2 = ((sender.tag-30000)%10000)/10;
   int intTag1 = ((sender.tag-(intTag2*10))-30000)/10000;
   NSLog(@"tag numbers are  %d and %d", intTag1, intTag2);
  }

I've used several big numbers to encode the tag .. hope it solves your problem to assign two tags
