how to add gradient effect to button in iphone?

Hi friends,
If anyone, of you, want to add gradient effect to custom button then here is the way to add that effect.

Example :

        // Add Border to button
        CALayer *layer = btnCalender.layer;
        layer.cornerRadius = 5.0f;
        layer.masksToBounds = YES;
        layer.borderWidth = 1.0f;
        layer.borderColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.3f alpha:0.2f].CGColor;
       
        // Add Shine to button
        CAGradientLayer *Layer = [CAGradientLayer layer];
        Layer = layer.bounds;
        Layer.colors = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
                             (id)[UIColor colorWithWhite:1.0f alpha:0.4f].CGColor,
                             (id)[UIColor colorWithWhite:1.0f alpha:0.2f].CGColor,
                             (id)[UIColor colorWithWhite:0.75f alpha:0.2f].CGColor,
                             (id)[UIColor colorWithWhite:0.4f alpha:0.2f].CGColor,
                             (id)[UIColor colorWithWhite:1.0f alpha:0.4f].CGColor,
                             nil];
        Layer.locations = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
                                [NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0f],
                                [NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.2f],
                                [NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.3f],
                                [NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0f],
                                [NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0f],
                                nil];
        [layer addSublayer: Layer];
