xcode 4 - custom keyboard with two Text Fields



I have created a custom keyboard and I have two text fields. When the user clicks on one of them, the keyboard appears.





How can I know which text field is currently active so that I write what the user is typing from the keyboard?

  1. This is how I would do:

    Tag both textfields (or use properties)

    textField1.tag = 100;
    textField2.tag = 101;


    Also set their delegates.

    textField1.delegate = self;
    textField2.delegate = self;


    On the .h file declare your class will implement the UITextFieldDelegate Protocol

    and on the .m

    - (BOOL)textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField
    {
    if (textField.tag == 100) //you should use a constant instead of 100
    {
    //set a breakpoint here so you would know your typing the first textField
    return YES;
    }
    }

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?
