How to trigger textViewdelegate on programmatical UITextView edits

Question

If I am typing with the keyboard, then textViewDidChange and shouldChangeTextInRange are always called. But when I change the textView programmatically, the delegate methods aren't called. How do I get a programmatic change in textView to trigger delegate methods?

Update

Is there some other way for simulating keyboard input programmatically?

Answer 1

I solve this issue in my code using the insert method instead to change the value of the text string.

textView.insertText("Your Text")
