You need to implement protocol method for custom UIView class.
For example;
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@protocol YourCustomViewDelegate <NSObject>
- (void)buttonTapped;
@end
@interface YourCustomView : UIView
@property (nonatomic, strong) id< YourCustomViewDelegate > delegate;
@end
And the .m file you can call buttonTapped delegate method.
- (void)myCustomClassButtonTapped:(id)sender
{
[self.delegate buttonTapped];
}
For proper work;
- set your custom view delegate to self in your custom view controller.
- add buttonTapped method to that view controller
- And do what you want in that method. Present/Push view controllers like the other answers explained.
Edit
I will try to illustrate very simple usage of protocols, hope it will help you.
#import "MyViewController.h"
#import "YourCustomView.h"
@interface MyViewController ()<YourCustomViewDelegate> // this part is important
@end
@implementation MyViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
YourCustomView *customView = // initialize your custom view, I suppose that you already did it
customView.delegate = self;
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning {
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
- (void)buttonTapped
{
YOUR_VIEW_CONTROLLER_CLASS *viewCon =[storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"mainVC"]; //mainVC is just a example and u will have to replace it with your viewController storyboard id
//Pushing VC
[self.navigationController pushViewController:viewCon animated:YES];
}
Take a look at this
YourViewController *obj=[[YourViewController alloc]init];
UINavigationController *nav=[[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:obj];
[[[UIApplication sharedApplication]keyWindow].rootViewController presentViewController:nav animated:YES completion:NULL];
try like this
UIStoryboard* storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil];
UIViewController* initialView = [storyboard instantiateInitialViewController];
Firstly you need to set a storyboard Id to your ViewController, namely "mainVC". Then you could pus/present it using below code :-
YOUR_VIEW_CONTROLLER_CLASS *viewCon =[storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"mainVC"]; //mainVC is just a example and u will have to replace it with your viewController storyboard id
//Pushing VC
[self.navigationController pushViewController:viewCon animated:YES];
//OR presenting VC
[self presentViewController:viewCon animated:YES completion:nil];
Also in case if you want your another storyboard to be initiated then below,
UIStoryboard* storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil]; //Change MainStoryboard with your storyboard id
hope this will help
the way i perceive your question is
->Rightnow your inside you are in UIView
class and inside it there is a button by clicking it you want to push or present a ViewController and offcourse from inside your UIView class you cant push or present your view Controller. So
you can do one simple thing first inside action method make a ref(forward declaration) or you can make a whole new object of your ViewController class in which your UIView is present right now , then call a function(which exist in your ViewController) like
//function inside your uiview calss
- (void)btnaction
{
[_objCSInformationViewController pushViewController];
}
// function inside your view controller
-(void)pushViewController
{
yourViewController *objViewController = [[yourViewController alloc]initWithNibName:@"yourViewController" bundle:nil];
[strong.navigationController pushViewController:objViewController animated:YES];
}
