What is the alternative for searchDisplayController in iOS 8?

This morning I changed my app's deployment target to 8.0. Unfortunately, searchDisplayController is deprecated in iOS 8.0.

My question is what is the alternative for searchDisplayController if I want my app be able to continue work on both iOS 7.x and 8.x?

Solution

  • The alternative is UISearchController. If you set your Deployment Target to ios 7.x in the project file it will still work on iOS7
