nick-merrill / SelectiveSubviews.m
Last active August 29, 2015 13:56
This is a convenience function to recursively run code on subviews of specified class types. It's untested, so please just use as a basis for something likely better, perhaps that includes IndexPath counting, etc.
/*
Example use:
// Return all labels of the cell
NSMutableArray *labels = [Utility ApplyToSubviews:cell limitedToClass:[UILabel class] usingBlock:^(id obj) {
UILabel *label = (UILabel *)obj;
label.text = @"Changed text";
} recursively:YES];
