Assignment to readonly property error in a uiwebview

Question

WHEN I WRITE:

self.recipeSiteView.request = recipe.page ;

XCODE SAY : "assignment to readonly property "

I modified a template code :

self.recipePhoto.image = [UIImage imageNamed:recipe.imageFile];

how can I use this expression for a UIWEBView?

Answer 1

The request property of UIWebView is read-only. You are not allowed to set it. Hence the error. See the reference docs.

If you wish to load a new request, use the loadRequest: method:

[self.recipeSiteView loadRequest:recipe.page];

This assumes that your recipe.page property is of type NSURLRequest.
