3,870 PointsalertView does not pop up
I followed the instructions in the video. However when I click on the button signup it does not show the alerView.
Here is my code in SingupViewController.m
- (IBAction)signup:(id)sender {
NSString *username = [self.usernameField.text stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:
[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
NSString *passcode = [self.passcodeField.text stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:
[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
NSString *email = [self.emailField.text stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:
[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
if ([username length] == 0 || [passcode length] == 0 || [email length] == 0) {
UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Oops!"
message:@"Make sure you enter a username, passcode and email address"
delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alertView show];
}
What might be wrong? Any help would be appreciated

3,870 PointsProblem Solved!! Following methods were commented out in my InboxViewController.m when I first opened. I did not noticed they were not commented out in the video.
(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{}
(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{}

8,718 PointsAre you sure the username, password, and email fields have text in them when you call this fucntion?
Esma Goktekin
3,870 Pointsyes they have text in them : username, passcode and email adress..
Misha Shaposhnikov
8,718 PointsWell, the only thing I can think of now is: making sure you connected this IBAction to the correct ViewController in the Storyboard?
Esma Goktekin
3,870 PointsI double checked that too.. This is so annoying.. But thanks anyways

Your code as posted looks fine to me.

8,841 PointsDid you check if your button is connected to IBAction? connecting it by holding down on the button in story board then pressing Ctrl and dragging to your SingupViewController.h. also make sure that signup scene custom class is set to SignupViewController
Esma Goktekin
3,870 PointsYes I checked those, everything looks alright
