IMOAutocompletionViewController ![screenshot] (https://github.com/fredericcormier/IMOAutocompletionViewController/blob/master/media/IMOAucompletionDEMO.png?raw=true)

##How to use:

####Your calling controller should implement these 2 protocols

	@interface MyCallingController : UIViewController <IMOAutocompletionViewDataSouce, IMOAutocompletionViewDelegate>
	
	//Whatever...	

	@end

####Then call the IMOAutocompletionViewController like this

	 IMOAutocompletionViewController *acvc = [[IMOAutocompletionViewController alloc]
                                             initWithLabelString:@"Label:" 
                                             textFieldString:[self theItem] 
                                             backgroundImageName:@"sandpaperthin.png"];
                                             
    [acvc setDataSource:(id<IMOAutocompletionViewDataSouce>)self];
    [acvc setDelegate:(id<IMOAutocompletionViewDelegate>)self];

    
 	UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:acvc];
    [[self navigationController] presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
    [acvc release];
    [navController release];

Initializer arguments:

• labelString is the textfield caption label
• textFieldString is to populate the UITextfield
• pass a backgroundimage (optional)

Other initializer are overriden and call the designated initializer with default arguments (nil)

• set yourself as datasource and delegate for the controller

A navigation controller is required since the cancel button is the navigationItem rightBarButtonItem

####Being the delegate and the datasource you will need to implement those 2 methods

1 - provide a list of possible completions

	- (NSArray *)sourceForAutoCompletionTextField:(IMOAutocompletionViewController *)asViewController 
	{
    	return myListOfPossibleCompletionWords;
    }

2 - intercept back the controller completion word

	- (void)IMOAutocompletionViewControllerReturnedCompletion:(NSString *)completion 
	{
    	[self setTheThingThatNeedsCompletion:completion];
    }
