UIButtonType issue

[boxidilshan]

Hi,

I have created a UIButton by passing an integer value as this.

 UIButton* custom_newBackButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:101];
 [custom_newBackButton addTarget:self action:@selector(backButtonAction) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
 [custom_newBackButton setTitle:@"Back" forState:UIControlStateNormal];

 UIBarButtonItem* newBackButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:custom_newBackButton];
 [[self navigationItem] setLeftBarButtonItem: newBackButton];

In some of the classes this works but some of the classes it fails with "Invalid conversion from int to UIButtonType". Is this a recommended way to handle this. I have simply use this 101 to get the back button look and feel.

Regards,

Dilshan

Why not use the proper constants instead of magic numbers?

typedef enum {
   UIButtonTypeCustom = 0,
   UIButtonTypeRoundedRect,
   UIButtonTypeDetailDisclosure,
   UIButtonTypeInfoLight,
   UIButtonTypeInfoDark,
   UIButtonTypeContactAdd,
} UIButtonType;

But can I get that back button shape using the code instead of using images?
