(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;
}

下面的代码类似于sickp的答案，但是正确地处理复制-粘贴操作。如果尝试粘贴超过限制的文本，下面的代码将截断文本以符合限制，而不是完全拒绝粘贴操作。

- (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string {
    static const NSUInteger limit = 70; // we limit to 70 characters
    NSUInteger allowedLength = limit - [textField.text length] + range.length;
    if (string.length > allowedLength) {
        if (string.length > 1) {
            // get at least the part of the new string that fits
            NSString *limitedString = [string substringToIndex:allowedLength];
            NSMutableString *newString = [textField.text mutableCopy];
            [newString replaceCharactersInRange:range withString:limitedString];
            textField.text = newString;
        }
        return NO;
    } else {
        return YES;
    }
}

为了使它与任何长度的字符串剪切和粘贴工作，我建议将函数更改为如下内容:

#define MAX_LENGTH 20

- (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string
    {
        NSInteger insertDelta = string.length - range.length;

        if (textField.text.length + insertDelta > MAX_LENGTH)
        {
           return NO; // the new string would be longer than MAX_LENGTH
        }
        else {
            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 
    }

通常您有多个长度不同的输入字段。

- (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string {
    int allowedLength;
    switch(textField.tag) {
        case 1: 
            allowedLength = MAXLENGTHNAME;      // triggered for input fields with tag = 1
            break;
        case 2:
            allowedLength = MAXLENGTHADDRESS;   // triggered for input fields with tag = 2
            break;
        default:
            allowedLength = MAXLENGTHDEFAULT;   // length default when no tag (=0) value =255
            break;
    }

    if (textField.text.length >= allowedLength && range.length == 0) {
        return NO; // Change not allowed
    } else {
        return YES; // Change allowed
    }
}

你不能直接这样做- UITextField没有maxLength属性，但你可以设置UITextField的委托，然后使用:

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