UIAlertView, a class contained in Apple's UIKit framework, was used to display an alert to the user. Alerts could have a title, message, several buttons, and custom subviews. UIAlertView was deprecated in iOS 8 and replaced with UIAlertController.

Use the properties and methods defined in this class to set the title, message, and delegate of an alert view and configure the buttons. You must set a delegate if you add custom buttons. The delegate should conform to the UIAlertViewDelegate protocol. Use the show method to display an alert view once it is configured.
