A view controller for a message that can be expanded to show detail and allow mailing the detail
UIXExpandableMessageController supports iOS 6.1+ SDK, ARC and non-ARC, and handles rotation. It is intended for use in iPad applications.
#Usage
UIXExpandableMessage is intended to be as simple to use as UIAlert. There are two factory methods:
+ (UIXExpandableMessageController*) messageWithTitle:(NSString *)title shortMessage:(NSString *)message detail:(NSString*) detail;
+ (UIXExpandableMessageController*) messageWithError:(NSError *)error additionalDetail:(NSString*) detail;messageWithError takes an NSError and uses error.localizedDescription as the short message and uses the standard description string as the detail message.
messageWithTitle allows for user specified message contents
Displaying the message is similar to UIAlert, using a show method:
- (void) show;##Properties
@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString* emailSubject; //subject line value for email sent from UIXExpandableMessage
@property (nonatomic, copy) NSArray* emailRecipients; //array of email address to send the email to (the "To" receipents)
@property (nonatomic, assign) NSObject<UIXExpandableMessageViewDelegate>* expandableMessageDelegate;##Delegate
UIXExpandableMessageContoller does not allow for much interactivity, but a delegate is provided as a courtesy if some indication of what is being done with the message is desired. All methods are optional:
- (void) messageDidDismiss:(UIXExpandableMessageController*) expandableMessageController;
- (void) messageDidExpand:(UIXExpandableMessageController*) expandableMessageController;
- (void) messageDidSelectEmail:(UIXExpandableMessageController*) expandableMessageController;#Including UIXExpandableMessageContoller in your project
Just add the UIXExpandableMessageController folder to your project making sure all contents are included in your desired target (2 source files, 1 xib).
##Known issues Scrolling in the detail view can be choppy, have not figured that one out yet.
