display done button on UIPickerview

Question

I have written the following code in the viewDidLoad method:

categoryPickerView=[[UIPickerView alloc]init];
categoryPickerView.alpha = 0;
[self.view addSubview:categoryPickerView];
categoryPickerView.delegate=self;
categoryPickerView.tag=1;

and called this method to hide picker view

- (IBAction)hidePickerView:(id)sender {
    [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
    [UIView setAnimationDuration:0.6];
    CGAffineTransform transfrom = CGAffineTransformMakeTranslation(0, 200);
    categoryPickerView.transform = transfrom;
    categoryPickerView.alpha = categoryPickerView.alpha * (-1) + 1;
    [UIView commitAnimations];
}

My problem is that I want to display a "Done" button on a picker view and the picker view should hide on button click.

You can use this code,

UIToolbar *toolBar= [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,320,44)];
[toolBar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlackOpaque];
UIBarButtonItem *barButtonDone = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Done" 
    style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:@selector(changeDateFromLabel:)];
toolBar.items = @[barButtonDone];
barButtonDone.tintColor=[UIColor blackColor];
[pickerView addSubview:toolBar];
//(or)pickerView.inputAccessoryView = toolBar;

and set button action method for changeDateFromLabel:

-(void)changeDateFromLabel:(id)sender
{
   [[your UI Element] resignFirstResponder];
}
