resignFirstResponder Not Responding

I have a text field named "fieldPassword" declared as an IBOutlet

@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *fieldPassword;

I synthesize it later on and then, in an attempt to have the return key dismiss the keyboard, I have:

- (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField
{
   fieldPassword.delegate = self;
   [fieldPassword resignFirstResponder];
   [self.view endEditing:YES];

   return YES;
}

The problem is that when I run the simulator and hit the return key in the designated text field, nothing happens. Previously, I also had fieldPassword.delegate = self; in -viewDidLoad and that crashed the simulator with an unrecognized selector error.

Any help is much appreciated!

Follow the below things

  1.Go to xib or storyboard where you have set that your view.

  2.Right Click the TextField.If you click that you can see the 

       Outlets->Delegate with Empty Circle

  3.Just connect with File's  Owner.It is Yellow Color.

       Once you do this,the circle is not empty.It is filled now.

  4.Then go to declaration or .h part


       #import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

       @interface ViewController : UIViewController<UITextFieldDelegate>

 5.Then in .m

       -(BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField

       {

          [textField resignFirstResponder];

           return YES;
        }

It should be [self.fieldPassword resignFirstResponder]; instead of [fieldPassword resignFirstResponder];

Also self.fieldPassword.delegate = self; should be in viewDidLoad or viewDidAppear

If you don't set the delegate earlier, you won't get the delegate callback. Try this in viewDidLoad:

self.fieldPassword.delegate = self;

You might have been missing the self before.
