How can I interact with "iPad keyboard hiding button" programmatically?

There is a button at bottom right of iPad keyboard which is to hide the keypad.

enter image description here

How can I interact with it programmatically? (get the button then send UIControlEventTouchUpInside to it).

Does anyone know this?

[Edit] In my case, the keyboard is shown on a modal view.

Overriding disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal to return NO as below allows you to dismiss the keyboard when you resignFirstResponder, even when your UITextView is on a modal view. You should put this code to your view controller, from which you initiate the keyboard:

- (BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal {
    return NO;
}

Something like this? I can't remember where I found this code but I used it to toggle the on-screen keyboard because it would be hidden by default if a bluetooth one was connected.

- (void) toggleKeyboard(UIKeyboardImpl * keyImpl){

    if (UIKeyboardAutomaticIsOnScreen()) {
        UIKeyboardOrderOutAutomatic();
    } else {
    UIKeyboardOrderInAutomatic();
}

Edit

I found where I got this code from. It works fine but the catch is that you need to import the private framework GraphicsServices, which would most likely get your app rejected from the App store.

In general, you would send the resignFirsResponder message to the active input view.
