I need to take the user input from UITextfield and apply it to annotation on the map. My tag button code is below</p> <pre><code>- (void) tag { MapAnnotation *annotation = [[MapAnnotation alloc] initWithCoordinate:current.coordinate]; NSString *locString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%f, %f", current.coordinate.latitude, current.coordinate.longitude]; NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; formatter.timeStyle = NSDateFormatterLongStyle; //insert UITextfield UIAlertView * alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Name your Location" message:nil delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"Continue" otherButtonTitles: nil]; alert.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput; UITextField * alertTextField = [alert textFieldAtIndex:0]; alertTextField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeDefault; alertTextField.placeholder = @"Enter title of your tag"; [alert show]; // I have tried numerous variations of NSString below //NSString *pintitle = NSLog(@"%@", alertTextField.text); annotation.title = pintitle; annotation.subtitle = locString; [mapView addAnnotation:annotation]; } </code></pre> <p>i have tried several options some returning a null value and others nothing. I am beginning iOS development and just can't get this part figured out</p>
