Layout relation between MKAnnotationView and its rightCalloutAccessoryView has changed in iOS7

An UIButton is set to the rightCalloutAccessoryView of the MKPinAnnotationView, and it fires btnClicked: method. In iOS6, the layout relation between MKAnnotationView and its rightCalloutAccessoryView can be easily used to find the MKPinAnnotationView through MKPinAnnotationView *pin = (MKPinAnnotationView *)[[button superview] superview];. But in iOS7, the layout relation does not exist anymore.

- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)theMapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>)annotation{
...

MKPinAnnotationView *pinView = (MKPinAnnotationView *)[mapView dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier:tripStartAddrAnnotationIdentifier];
    if (!pinView)
    {            
        MKPinAnnotationView *customPinView = [[MKPinAnnotationView alloc]
                                              initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:tripStartAddrAnnotationIdentifier];
        customPinView.animatesDrop = NO;
        customPinView.canShowCallout = YES;

        UIButton* rightButton = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 32, 32)];
        [rightButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"disclosureUpMap.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        [rightButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"disclosureDownMap.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

        [rightButton addTarget:self
                        action:@selector(btnClicked:)
              forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
        customPinView.rightCalloutAccessoryView = rightButton;

        return customPinView;
    }
    else
    {
        pinView.annotation = annotation;
    }
    return pinView;
...
}


-(void)btnClicked:(id)sender{
    NSLog(@"superview 1 :%@",[sender superview]);
    NSLog(@"superview 2 :%@",[[sender superview] superview]);
    NSLog(@"superview 3 :%@",[[[sender superview] superview] superview]);
    NSLog(@"superview 4 :%@",[[[[sender superview] superview] superview] superview]);
    MKPinAnnotationView *pin = (MKPinAnnotationView *)[[sender superview] superview];
    // the information contains in pin.annotation is necessary for the pushed view controller
...    
}

Any help will be appreciated.

This is a great reason to use the map view's own delegate method calloutAccessoryControlTapped instead of a custom method.

Even if the superview approach works in iOS 6 or earlier, it is generally a bad idea to rely on a specific view hierarchy.

The delegate method conveniently provides a reference to the annotation view from which you can get the annotation via view.annotation (no guessing or hoping or assumptions).

Remove the addTarget and replace the custom method with the delegate method.

If you must use a custom method instead of the delegate method, it's much more reliable to get the selected annotation from the map view's selectedAnnotations property instead of looking for superviews.
