I am using uikit code in SwiftUI.This approach is not metioned anywhere in apple documentation.Is this right approach?
For my use case i need to access the same intance of MyViewController ,which i am using in UIViewRepresentable for adding it to SwiftUI herierchy .And to achive that i am creating a static intance of MyViewController and using it in objective c function to make changes in viewcontroller as well as adding it in SwiftUI view hireiachy . Is this a right apprach to use ? I dont find any documentation by apple which suggest this approach . Just want to validate it here . And also Is this method of using UIRepresentableController right method to use in my UIkit's view controller in SwiftUI and updating viewcontroller from objectiveC ? or is there any other approach to achieve this ? Entry Point : import SwiftUI @main struct MyApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { SwiftUIView() } } } SwiftUIView: import SwiftUI struct SwiftUIView: View { var body: some View { UIKitToSwiftUIBridge () } } UIKitToSwiftUIBridge: import SwiftUI import UIKit struct UIKitToSwiftUIBridge: UIViewControllerRepresentable { func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> MyViewController { let viewcontroller = SharedViewController.sViewController return viewcontroller } func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: MyViewController, context: Context) { } } SharedViewController : { static let sViewController = MyViewController () private override init () { } @objc static func GetViewController ()->MyViewController { return SharedViewController.sViewController } } MyViewController.swift : import UIKit class MyViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() self.view.backgroundColor = .black let button = UIButton (frame : CGRect (x:50, y:100, width:100, height:50)) button.setTitle("Button", for: .normal) button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(ButtonAction (_:)), for: .touchDown) } @objc func ButtonAction (_ sender :UIButton) { let view = UIView (frame: CGRect (x:0, y:0, width:300, height:400)) view.backgroundColor = .red let label = UILabel (frame: CGRect(x: 60, y: 50, width: 150, height: 60)) label.text = " Label" view.addSubview(label) self.view.addSubview(view) } @objc func ChangeColor () { self.view.backgroundColor = .white } } Objective C code where i need to access MyViewController's intance : void ObjectiveC::ChangeColorOfViewController () { dispatch_async( dispatch_get_main_queue (),^{ MyViewController * sharedobj = [SharedObject sharedMethod]; [sharedobj ChangeColor]; }); }

SwiftUI button added inside uikit view using hosting controller is not triggering a action
When i am using a swiftUI's button with the help of a UIHostingController inside a UIKit based view , Swift UI view with button : - @State var uTitle:String! @State var uFrame:CGRect! var body: some View { Button(action: { self.ButtonAction(pId: uId) }) { Text(uTitle) } } func ButtonAction (pId:Int) { print ("Hello world !!!!!") } } If i use above SwiftUIButton this way ( Adding button.frame.size ) :- let button:UIView! button = UIHostingController(rootView: SwiftUIButton (uTitle: "Button title")).view button.frame.origin = CGPoint(x: 50, y: 50) button.frame.size = CGSize(width: 150, height: 50) parentview.addSubview(button) Button click action works fine. But if i use button this way (not adding width height after intantiation of UIHostingController ,instead adding width height inside SwiftUIButton using .frame(widht: ,height:)) let button:UIView! button = UIHostingController(rootView: SwiftUIButton (uTitle: "Button title")).view button.frame.origin = CGPoint(x: 50, y: 50) // Removed frame.size parentview.addSubview(button) @State var uTitle:String! @State var uFrame:CGRect! var body: some View { Button(action: { self.ButtonAction(pId: uId) }) { Text(uTitle) // Added .frame property .frame(width:150,height:50) } } func ButtonAction (pId:Int) { print ("Hello world !!!!!") } } Action is not triggering. What could be the issue?

In swiftUI TextField ,can we have some property similar to textfield.text in case of UIkit's TextField so that we do not have to explicitly mantain a State var to hold textfield value?
I am newly shifting to SwiftUI from UIkit , and in UIkit if we have to use a TextField then we could use a delegate method shouldChangeCharacterIn(textfield:UITextField) and access text from textffield.text, for accessing text value of textfield .But in SwiftUI's TextField we have to pass a State variable for accessing value . And in my app , i will have a lot of TextField and i dont want to mantain this much state variables . Is there any way i can get UIkit like behavior in SwiftUI's Textfield ? And also in case of button action ,we can use a func (sender:UIButton) in case of UIkit but in case of SwiftUI we did not get a object of sender ,Is there any way i can achive similar thing in SwiftUI func ?

Can we set a NSString from objC in UITextView to store value from textview.text
Is there any way we can set a NSString from objC in UITextView by extending or without extending UITextView(without extending preferably). Reason -: My logic for action on text change will be triggered from cpp code .That is why i need to send the textview.text to objC on change of character .Is it possible to have a buffer of such type ? ,and if yes, is the memory delocation and allocation of buffer managed by xcode ? If any of the above thing is not possible ,then is there anyother way to achive similar behavior ? Any answer can help.

how tabs in safari are implemented in iOS (one we see in landscape mode in iPhone)?
I am trying to implement safari like tabs in ios for my application , i am not able to find any source how apple has implemented that for safari . I tried implementing it by subclassing UITabBarController ,UITabBar and UITabBarItem , in this implementation i am able to put cross buttom in tabs but still not able to achieve same behavior as tabs in safari for ios . For example , in my approach i am not able to find a way to handle the "Tab deck" when number of tabs increases from certain limit .Is there any approach i can follow or artifect i can use to achive such behavior ? or the approach i am using ,is it same approach used by apple for safari tabs in ios? Approach i follow as of now - : import UIKit class TWCustomisedTabBarController: UITabBarController { var twtabbar: TWTabBar! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() tabBar.isHidden = true setupView() } func setupView() {} func setTabBar(items: [TWTabBarItem]) { guard items.count > 0 else { return } twtabbar = TWTabBar(items: items) for i in 0 ..< items.count { items[i].tag = i items[i].crossbutton.tag = i } guard let bar = twtabbar else { return } self.view.addSubview(bar) } } class TWTabBar: UITabBar { var twitems:[TWTabBarItem] = [] init (items: [TWTabBarItem]) { super.init(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 320, height: 49)) self.twitems = items setupView() } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented") } func setupView() { for i in 0 ..< twitems.count { let item = twitems[i] addSubview(item) } } } class TWTabBarItem: UIView { let textLabel = UILabel() let crossbutton = UIButton() let leadingline = UILabel() override init(frame: CGRect) { super.init(frame: frame) setupView() } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented") } private func setupView() { textLabel.text = "Tab" textLabel.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 14) textLabel.frame = CGRect(x: 5, y: 0, width: self.frame.width/2, height: self.frame.height) textLabel.textColor = .black crossbutton.setTitle("X", for: .normal) crossbutton.frame = CGRect(x: self.frame.width*3/4, y: 15, width: self.frame.width/4, height: 20) crossbutton.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal) crossbutton.backgroundColor = .gray crossbutton.titleLabel?.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 10) leadingline.text = "|" leadingline.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 25) leadingline.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 5, height: 49) leadingline.textColor = .black addSubview(leadingline) addSubview(crossbutton) addSubview(textLabel) } } ```
