在Swift 5.2中工作:

 class AngListVC: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate {

    @IBOutlet weak var angTextField: UITextField!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        angTextField.delegate = self
        angTextField.addTarget(self, action: #selector(textFieldDidChange(_:)), for: .editingChanged)
      
    }

   func textField(_ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool {
           let userText =  angTextField.text ?? ""
           var newText = ""
           if range.length > 0 {
               let txt = NSString(string: userText)
               if txt.length > 0 {
                   newText = txt.replacingCharacters(in: range, with: "")
               }
           } else {
               newText = userText + ""
           }
           return newText.count <= 3
       }

@objc func textFieldDidChange(_ textField: UITextField) {
        print("textFieldDidChange")
   }

当您粘贴字符串超过您的字符限制时，此代码工作正常。

func textView(_ textView: UITextView, shouldChangeTextIn range: NSRange, replacementText text: String) -> Bool {
        let str = (textView.text + text)
        if str.characters.count <= 10 {
            return true
        }
        textView.text = str.substring(to: str.index(str.startIndex, offsetBy: 10))
        return false
    }

谢谢你的投票。：）

谢谢你奥古斯特!(Post)

这是我最终得到的代码:

#define MAX_LENGTH 20

- (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string
{
    if (textField.text.length >= MAX_LENGTH && range.length == 0)
    {
        return NO; // return NO to not change text
    }
    else
    {return YES;}
}

Swift 4.2和UITextFieldDelegate方法

这适用于我和限制文本字段有一个最大输入8个字符。希望NSRange最终会改变为Range，但现在我很高兴使用NSString从NSRange创建一个范围涉及到处理另一个可选。

func textField(_ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool {
    let text = textField.text ?? ""
    let nsString = text as NSString
    let newText = nsString.replacingCharacters(in: range, with: string)
    return newText.count <= 8
}

其他答案不处理用户可以从剪贴板粘贴长字符串的情况。如果我粘贴一个很长的字符串，它应该被截断，但显示出来。 在你的委托中使用这个:

static const NSUInteger maxNoOfCharacters = 5;

-(IBAction)textdidChange:(UITextField * )textField
{
NSString * text = textField.text;

if(text.length > maxNoOfCharacters)
{
    text = [text substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(0, maxNoOfCharacters)];
    textField.text = text;
}

// use 'text'

}

有通用的解决方案设置最大长度在Swift。 通过IBInspectable，你可以在Xcode属性检查器中添加新的属性。

import UIKit
private var maxLengths = [UITextField: Int]()
extension UITextField {

    @IBInspectable var maxLength: Int {
        get {
            guard let length = maxLengths[self]
            else {
                return Int.max
            }
            return length
        }
        set {
            maxLengths[self] = newValue
            addTarget(
                self,
                action: Selector("limitLength:"),
                forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.EditingChanged
            )
        }
    }

    func limitLength(textField: UITextField) {
        guard let prospectiveText = textField.text
            where prospectiveText.characters.count > maxLength else {
                return
        }
        let selection = selectedTextRange
        text = prospectiveText.substringWithRange(
            Range<String.Index>(prospectiveText.startIndex ..< prospectiveText.startIndex.advancedBy(maxLength))
        )
        selectedTextRange = selection
    }

}
