How do I check when a UITextField changes?

SWIFT

Swift 4.2

textfield.addTarget(self, action: #selector(ViewController.textFieldDidChange(_:)), for: .editingChanged)

and

@objc func textFieldDidChange(_ textField: UITextField) {

}

SWIFT 3 & swift 4.1

textField.addTarget(self, action: #selector(ViewController.textFieldDidChange(_:)), for: .editingChanged)

and

func textFieldDidChange(_ textField: UITextField) {

}

SWIFT 2.2

textField.addTarget(self, action: #selector(ViewController.textFieldDidChange(_:)), forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.EditingChanged)

and

func textFieldDidChange(textField: UITextField) {
    //your code
}

OBJECTIVE-C

[textField addTarget:self action:@selector(textFieldDidChange:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventEditingChanged];

and textFieldDidChange method is

-(void)textFieldDidChange :(UITextField *) textField{
    //your code
}

You can make this connection in interface builder.

1. In your storyboard, click the assistant editor at the top of the screen (two circles in the middle).

2. Ctrl + Click on the textfield in interface builder.

3. Drag from EditingChanged to inside your view controller class in the assistant view.

4. Name your function ("textDidChange" for example) and click connect.
