Change UIButton border color on highlight

Question

I\'ve got a simple custom UIButton, to which I added:

button.layer.bordercolor = [[UIColor blueColor]CGColor];

However, I want to change the .b

You can override setHighlighted and setSelected methods in UIButton subclass. From there you just tweak border color like following:

- (void)setHighlighted:(BOOL)highlighted {

    [super setHighlighted:highlighted];

    [self tweakState:highlighted];
}

- (void)setSelected:(BOOL)selected {

    [super setSelected:selected];

    [self tweakState:selected];
}

- (void)tweakState:(BOOL)state {

    if (state) {
        self.layer.borderColor = [_highlightedBorderColor CGColor];
    }
    else {
        self.layer.borderColor = [_defaultBorderColor CGColor];
    }
}
