Question

How do I call the following method from this IBAction? I want to call the prepareForSegue: method instead of the NSLog(@”clicked”);

Here’s the IBAction:

- (IBAction) annotationViewClick:(id) sender {
    NSLog(@"clicked");
}

Here’s the method:

// Do some customisation of our new view when a table item has been selected
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
    // Make sure we're referring to the correct segue
    if ([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:@"ShowMoreInfo"]) {

        // Get reference to the destination view controller
        MoreDetailViewController *mdvc = [segue destinationViewController];


        [mdvc setSelectedItemName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", placeName.text]];
        [mdvc setSelectedItemAddress:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", placeFormattedAddress.text]];

        [mdvc setSelectedItemWeb:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", placeWebsite.text]];
        [mdvc setSelectedItemRating:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", placeRating.text]];
  //      [mdvc setSelectedItemDistance:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", placeDistance.text]];

    }
}

thanks for the help!

prepareForSegue: method calls automatically when you performing a segue.

To perform a segue you should use performSegueWithIdentifier:,
for ex. [self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"showGuide" sender:self];,

in this case you need assign identifier to a segue in Xcode Interface Builder.
