Get values from several UITextFields - iphone

Question

I have a grouped static UITableViewController, with 3 rows per section. Each row contains a UITextField. How do I get the value for each UITextField?
So far, what I've seen is how to get the value of one UITextField. What should I do if I have to get more than one.
I plan to put the values of these fields in a NSMutableDictionary.
Here's my code for making the table view: (irrelevant parts are omitted)
#import "AddItemTableViewController.h"
#import "iMonggoFetcher.h"
#interface AddItemTableViewController() <UITextFieldDelegate>
#property (weak, nonatomic) NSMutableDictionary *productItem;
//required
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *stockNoTextField;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *nameTextField;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *retailPriceTextField;
//basic info
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *costTextField;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *descriptionTextField;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *barcodesTextField;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *tagsTextField;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UISwitch *exemptFromTaxSwitch;
//advanced features
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UISwitch *allowDecimalQuantitiesSwitch;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UISwitch *enableOpenPriceSwitch;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UISwitch *disableDiscountSwitch;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UISwitch *disableInventorySwitch;
#end
#implementation AddItemTableViewController
#synthesize productItem = _productItem;
#synthesize stockNoTextField = _stockNoTextField;
#synthesize nameTextField = _nameTextField;
#synthesize retailPriceTextField = _retailPriceTextField;
#synthesize costTextField = _costTextField;
#synthesize descriptionTextField = _descriptionTextField;
#synthesize barcodesTextField = _barcodesTextField;
#synthesize tagsTextField = _tagsTextField;
#synthesize exemptFromTaxSwitch = _exemptFromTaxSwitch;
#synthesize allowDecimalQuantitiesSwitch = _allowDecimalQuantitiesSwitch;
#synthesize enableOpenPriceSwitch = _enableOpenPriceSwitch;
#synthesize disableDiscountSwitch = _disableDiscountSwitch;
#synthesize disableInventorySwitch = _disableInventorySwitch;
- (IBAction)save:(UIBarButtonItem *)sender {
[self.productItem setValue:self.stockNoTextField.text forKey:IMONGGO_PRODUCT_STOCK_NO];
[self.productItem setValue:self.nameTextField.text forKey:IMONGGO_PRODUCT_NAME];
[self.productItem setValue:self.retailPriceTextField.text forKey:IMONGGO_PRODUCT_RETAIL_PRICE];
}
#pragma mark - UITextField
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField {
return YES;
}
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
return YES;
}
- (void)textFieldDidEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
// optionally trigger delegate method here
}
#pragma mark - View lifecycle
- (void) viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated{
//[self.stockNoTextField becomeFirstResponder];
}
- (void) viewDidLoad{
[super viewDidLoad];
self.stockNoTextField.delegate = self;
self.nameTextField.delegate = self;
self.retailPriceTextField.delegate = self;
//will do the rest later, just trying it out for now
}
#end

Answer 1

1) You can make properties of these fields.. and then get the text by the property name.text
2) You can try giving the fields a tag and then get these fields using viewwithtag method. and then their text.

Answer 2

you can take values of each textFields in a array by textField.text.
