I am making an app that requires a user to press one of two UIButtons
and then prints a response depending on which button was pressed (determined based on the tag of the button pressed). However, when I run press button, I get an
Unrecognized selector sent to instance
How do I resolve this?
Here's my code. The IBAction
at the bottom refers to the UIButtons
that are causing the error:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
let story1 = "This is the story."
let answer1 = "No change"
let answer2 = "Lose 1 health"
var healthStat : Int = 10
@IBOutlet weak var storyText: UILabel!
@IBOutlet weak var health: UILabel!
@IBOutlet weak var restartButton: UILabel!
@IBOutlet weak var choiceOne: UIButton!
@IBOutlet weak var choiceTwo: UIButton!
var storyIndex = 1
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
storyText.text = story1
choiceOne.setTitle("\(answer1)", for: .normal)
choiceTwo.setTitle("\(answer2)", for: .normal)
health.text = String("Health: \(healthStat)")
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
@IBAction func buttonPressed(_ sender: UIButton) {
if sender.tag == 1 {
print("Option 1 selected")
}
else if sender.tag == 2 {
print("Option 2 selected. Lose 1 health.")
healthStat = healthStat - 1
}
}
}
Here is the entirety of the error:

It seems like you have rename your IBAction
method name earlier it was different and it is connected to the previous name inside your storyboard. So just disconnect your action method and reconnect it appropriately.
