Actually I am Making an Alarm app. In that When i set the Time The UILocalNotification event happens at that time and it calls the method of AppDelegate class i.e didReceiveNotifications method. In this method i have written a code to call a method of SetViewController (showReminder method) and now in this method i want that it should show a NewViewController i.e TimeViewController as i have to show animation when the Alarm Invokes.
I need this as When Alarm invokes i have setted a Action sheet to appear but i wanted to show animation also.Action sheet appears in all views But the animation can be Shown in only particular view, that’s why i need to show A different ViewController.
Here is the code for what i am trying :-
I have tried al these also like PresentModalViewController, dismissModalViewController, AddSubview, remove superView… but result are negative 🙁 what should i do..?
Almost Whole CODE:–
AppDelegate Class :-
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveLocalNotification:(UILocalNotification *)notification {
if (notification){
NSLog(@"In did Notification");
NSString *reminderText = [notification.userInfo objectForKey:kRemindMeNotificationDataKey];
[viewController showReminder:reminderText];
application.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0;
}
}
setViewController.h :-
@interface SetAlarmViewController : UIViewController <UITableViewDataSource,UITableViewDelegate,UITextFieldDelegate,UIActionSheetDelegate>{
IBOutlet UITableView *tableview;
IBOutlet UIDatePicker *datePicker;
IBOutlet UITextField *eventText;
TPKeyboardAvoidingScrollView *scrollView;

IBOutlet UIButton *setAlarmButton;
AVAudioPlayer *player;

Your viewController is probably showing the view, but without the SetViewController’s view on the screen you can’t see it. Your going to have to first go to the SetViewController and then present your TimeViewController. Is this right, you want to show the SetViewController but call the showReminder: method right away? But only from the didReceiveLocalNotification:.
If this is the case, set a flag,and a text property in your SetViewControllers .h,
and present the SetViewController,and set the flag
and then in the viewDidAppear: of SetViewController
