so it's considered better to have the following:
- (IBAction)button1
{
//button 1 action
}
- (IBAction)button2
{
//button 2 action
}
- (IBAction)button3
{
//button 3 action
}
.
than to have the following:
- (IBAction)buttons:(id)sender
{
switch ([sender tag])
case 1: //button 1 action; break;
case 2: //button 2 action; break;
case 3: //button 3 action; break;
}
i would find it hard to believe that the former solution is both
easier to debug and maintain than the later.
