最好的方法是设置文本更改通知。在视图控制器方法的-awakeFromNib中，你需要:

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(limitTextField:) name:@"UITextFieldTextDidChangeNotification" object:myTextField];

然后在同一个类中添加:

- (void)limitTextField:(NSNotification *)note {
    int limit = 20;
    if ([[myTextField stringValue] length] > limit) {
        [myTextField setStringValue:[[myTextField stringValue] substringToIndex:limit]];
    }
}

然后链接出口myTextField到你的UITextField，它将不让你添加任何字符后，你达到限制。一定要把这个添加到你的dealloc方法中:

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:@"UITextFieldTextDidChangeNotification" object:myTextField];

我创建了这个UITextFieldLimit子类:

支持多个文本框 设置文本长度限制 粘贴的预防 在文本域中显示左字符的标签，当您停止编辑时隐藏。 当没有字符时摇动动画。

获取UITextFieldLimit.h和UITextFieldLimit。m从这个GitHub存储库:

https://github.com/JonathanGurebo/UITextFieldLimit

开始测试吧!

标记你的故事板创建的UITextField，并使用身份检查器链接到我的子类:

然后可以将其链接到IBOutlet并设置限制(默认为10)。

你的ViewController.h文件应该包含:(如果你不想修改设置，比如限制)

#import "UITextFieldLimit.h"

/.../

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextFieldLimit *textFieldLimit; // <--Your IBOutlet

ViewController。m文件应该@synthesize textFieldLimit。

在ViewController中设置文本长度限制。m文件:

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

    [textFieldLimit setLimit:25];// <-- and you won't be able to put more than 25 characters in the TextField.
}

希望这门课能帮到你。好运！

(BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string
{
    NSString *newString = [textField.text stringByReplacingCharactersInRange:range withString:string];

    if ([txt_name.text length]>100)
    {
        return NO;
    }

    return YES;
}

适用于Swift 3.1或更高版本

首先添加协议UITextFieldDelegate

如:-

class PinCodeViewController: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate { 
.....
.....
.....

}

之后创建你的UITextField并设置委托

完成经验:-

import UIKit

class PinCodeViewController: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate {

let pinCodetextField: UITextField = {
    let tf = UITextField()
    tf.placeholder = "please enter your pincode"
    tf.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 15)
    tf.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyle.roundedRect
    tf.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionType.no
    tf.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.numberPad
    tf.clearButtonMode = UITextFieldViewMode.whileEditing;
    tf.contentVerticalAlignment = UIControlContentVerticalAlignment.center
 return tf
  }()


 override func viewDidLoad() {
   super.viewDidLoad()
   view.addSubview(pinCodetextField)
    //----- setup your textfield anchor or position where you want to show it----- 


    // after that 
pinCodetextField.delegate = self // setting the delegate

 }
func textField(_ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool {
    return !(textField.text?.characters.count == 6 && string != "")
     } // this is return the maximum characters in textfield 
    }

我已经实现了一个UITextField扩展，以添加一个maxLength属性。

它基于Xcode 6 IBInspectables，所以你可以在接口构建器上设置maxLength限制。

实现如下:

UITextField + MaxLength。h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface UITextField_MaxLength : UITextField<UITextFieldDelegate>

@property (nonatomic)IBInspectable int textMaxLength;
@end

UITextField + MaxLength。m

#import "UITextField+MaxLength.h"

@interface UITextField_MaxLength()

@property (nonatomic, assign) id <UITextFieldDelegate> superDelegate;

@end

@implementation UITextField_MaxLength

- (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *) textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string {

    //validate the length, only if it's set to a non zero value
    if (self.textMaxLength>0) {
        if(range.length + range.location > textField.text.length)
            return NO;

        if (textField.text.length+string.length - range.length>self.textMaxLength) {
            return NO;
        }
    }

    //if length validation was passed, query the super class to see if the delegate method is implemented there
    if (self.superDelegate && [self.superDelegate respondsToSelector:@selector(textField:shouldChangeCharactersInRange:replacementString:)]) {
        return [self.superDelegate textField:textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:range replacementString:string];
    }
    else{
        //if the super class does not implement the delegate method, simply return YES as the length validation was passed
        return YES;
    }
}

- (void)setDelegate:(id<UITextFieldDelegate>)delegate {
    if (delegate == self)
        return;
    self.superDelegate = delegate;
    [super setDelegate:self];
}

//forward all non overriden delegate methods
- (id)forwardingTargetForSelector:(SEL)aSelector {
    if ([self.superDelegate  respondsToSelector:aSelector])
        return self.superDelegate;

    return [super forwardingTargetForSelector:aSelector];
}

- (BOOL)respondsToSelector:(SEL)aSelector {
    if ([self.superDelegate respondsToSelector:aSelector])
        return YES;

    return [super respondsToSelector:aSelector];
}
@end

上面给出的一些答案的问题是，例如，我有一个文本字段，我必须设置输入15个字符的限制，然后它在输入第15个字符后停止。但是他们不允许删除。那就是删除按钮也不管用了。我也面临着同样的问题。提出了解决方案，如下所示。非常适合我

- (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string
{
 if(textField.tag==6)
 {
    if ([textField.text length]<=30)
    {
        return YES;   
    }
    else if([@"" isEqualToString:string])
    {
        textField.text=[textField.text substringToIndex:30 ];
    }

    return NO;
 }
 else
 {
    return YES;
 }
}

我有一个文本框，我将其标签设置为“6” 并且我已经限制了最大字符限制= 30; 在任何情况下都可以正常工作
