Calling function in xcode iPhone

Question

If I have this function for button click

-(IBAction)loginButton:(UIButton *)sender{ }

How can I call this button function from this another method

-(void)increaseAmount {
myNumber = myNumber+0.01;

if (myNumber >= 1) {

    [self loginButton:sender];   

}

progressViewAuto.progress = myNumber;}

I have tried the above code but getting error that USE OF UNDECLARED IDENTIFIER 'sender'

Answer 1

And, if you want to be perfectly correct, you can link your UIButton to IBOutlet UIButton* theLoginButton; and then say [self loginButton:theLoginButton];.

But this would only be needed if you actually reference the sender in your loginButton routine, and that's the exception rather than the rule.

Answer 2

Simply pass in nil or even self.

Answer 3

You probably just want to send nil, like this:

[self loginButton:nil];
