Resetting UISearchbar programmatically



Is there a possibility to reset a UISearchbar with searchDisplayController programmatically which is active and already contains text?







- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {



if (tableView == self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView) {

searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView.hidden = YES;

searchBar.showsCancelButton = NO;

[searchBar resignFirstResponder];

}

}







This solution is working, but there is still text in the searchBar. If i add those lines of code:







searchBar.text = @"";







There is always a black transparent view left.





Any solutions?

  1. Here ya go. This is a delegate method called when the user hits cancel. If you want to wire it up differently just declare your search bar as an outlet and reference it. Anyway:

    -(void)searchBarCancelButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar
    {
    searchBar.text = @"";
    [searchBar resignFirstResponder];
    }

  4. You can also explicitly hide the resultsTableView, if that's what you want:

    searchDC.searchResultsTableView.hidden=YES;


    (searchDC is an instance of UISearchDisplayController)

    This will help you with hiding the Cancel button and stuff: http://www.alexandre-gomes.com/?p=418

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
