I am an IOS noob and this may be a dumb question, so here it is. I have two views. View A and View B. View A has my textField (for my message) and View B has my send button. Is it possible to send text inputed in View A from my send button in View B? Or is there a better way to do this?
Basically what I am trying to do is share a message using a menu. After the user clicks the send message a popup will display asking the user how to send. (IE: Send as Email, Share on Twitter, Share on Facebook, or Cancel).
My FIRST VIEW
My SECOND VIEW
Also just so I am clear. I don’t expect anyone to solve it just wondering if anyone has ever done something like this before. If you want to provide possible solution that would be awesome. But really, more or less, I am looking for some insight.
Question: “Is it possible to send text inputed in View A from my send button in View B? Or is there a better way to do this?”
Answer: Yes, it is possible. Here is a tutorial which contains an explanation of how to send an email from an app: http://blog.mugunthkumar.com/coding/iphone-tutorial-in-app-email/. In the toolbar in the first view you might consider using a standard system image, UIBarButtonSystemItemAction, instead of “Send Message.” You might also consider using a UIActionSheet instead of the second view. Apple says, “Use the UIActionSheet class to present the user with a set of alternatives for how to proceed with a given task.”
