How to set an action for an UIBarButtonItem?

Question

I try to set an action for an UIBarButtonItem like I did before with a normal button:

1. Select the UIBarButtonItem in storyboard.
2. Right-Click and pull to my .h-file

3. Change to action and choose UIBarButtonItem and give the action a name.

       - (IBAction)haupt:(UIBarButtonItem *)sender;
   

4. Write some code in the function at my .m-file.

   - (IBAction)haupt:(UIBarButtonItem *)sender {
       NSLog(@"button");
   
   
       }
   

Now I try this in the simulator, but nothing happens (No output on the console). What I am doing wrong?

Answer 1

Select the UIBarButton , Create an IBAction by CNRL+Dragging at the implementation section in .m file then try to print with NSLog use breakpoint to know if the control is reaching the IBAction you created.
