EDIT: Added Source Project
--> I uploaded a sample project that clearly shows my dilemma which can be found here <--
I created a Split View-based Application. I then added a second UINavigationController to the DetailViewController inside the MainWindow.xib.
I then pop a new UIViewController Subclasses when a toolbar item is clicked. I use the following code to conduct the pop:
DocumentDetailVC *DetailViewController = [[DocumentDetailVC alloc] initWithNibName:@"DocumentDetailVC" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
[detailViewController.detailNavController pushViewController:DetailViewController animated:YES];
DocumentsVC *RRequestViewController = [[DocumentsVC alloc] initWithNibName:@"DocumentsVC" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:RRequestViewController animated:YES];
This works. The issue I am having is how do I pass information or function calls from the Main side of the Split View to the Detail side of the Split view?
If I present the UIViewController via the following method:
DocumentDetailVC *RRequestViewController = [[DocumentDetailVC alloc] initWithNibName:@"DocumentDetailVC" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
RRequestViewController.delegate=self;
RRequestViewController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationCurrentContext;
[RRequestViewController setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal];
[self presentModalViewController:RRequestViewController animated:YES];
[RRequestViewController release];
RRequestViewController = nil;
I am able to complete a reach back through a protocol as intended.
DocumentDetailVC, when loaded via the pushViewController, the hierarchy is as follows:
NSLog([NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",self]);
//self = <DocumentDetailVC: 0x4e0d960>
NSLog([NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",self.parentViewController]);
//self.parentViewController = <UINavigationController: 0x4e0ce30>
NSLog([NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",self.parentViewController.parentViewController]);
//self.parentViewController.parentViewController = <UISplitViewController: 0x4e0d0f0>
Thank you for your assistance. This problem is consuming my life!
