I have a UINavigationController
. I have to pop a view from a UINavigationController
and replace it with another view. How we can search for a UIViewController
object and replace it with another ?
when i print
NSMutableArray *allViewControllers = [NSMutableArray arrayWithArray: myDelegate.navigationController.viewControllers];
I tried..
[allViewControllers removeObjectIdenticalTo: @"NonLogginedViewController"];
[allViewControllers removeObjectIdenticalTo: myDelegate.nonLogginedViewController];
myDelegate.navigationController.viewControllers = allViewControllers;
But it didn't update the UINavigationController
stack ..
I don't know how to use removeObjectIdenticalTo
with UINavigationController
stack..
Please help me ..
Firstly, your test:
[allViewControllers removeObjectIdenticalTo: @"NonLogginedViewController"];
...is testing for a string, not a view controller. So that won't work.
If you know where the view controller is in the navigation controller's stack then this is easy. Say for example you've just pushed a new controller and now you want to remove the one before that. You could do this:
NSMutableArray *allControllers = [self.navigationController.viewControllers mutableCopy];
[allControllers removeObjectAtIndex:allControllers.count - 2];
[self.navigationController setViewControllers:allControllers animated:NO];
But I think in your case you want to find a certain controller and remove it. One way to do this would be to look for a certain class, e.g. LoginController. Set up a new array by copying the old one, and then iterate through this new array:
NSArray *allControllersCopy = [allControllers copy];
for (id object in allControllersCopy) {
if ([object isKindOfClass:[LoginController class]])
[allControllers removeObject:object];
}
...then set the allControllers array for the viewControllers property, as before.
NOTE: If you're manipulating a UINavigationController
's stack from a containing view controller – perhaps once that view controller appears – you should wait until the view is fully onscreen. A good place for that is in the viewDidAppear:
override, for example:
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
NSMutableArray *allControllers = ...
}
