Question

I created a tabBar app in Interface Builder – and named all my tabs and tab-items there. Can I now programmatically find out or retrieve the names of my tabs during run-time?
When I do an NSLog of the viewControllers array, all I get is:
(
“”,
“”,
“”,
“”,
“”
)

That’s obviously no good – I need to get more specific info.

Also, I noticed you can’t set a tag, title or label in IB to any of the view-controllers in your tabs.

So how can you identify through code what you have sitting in your various tabs? Or do you have to ditch Interface Builder and do everything by code?

Answer 1

for(id btn in TabObject.tabBar.items)
    {
        if([btn isKindOfClass:[UITabBarItem class]])
        {
            UITabBarItem *sender=btn;
            NSLog(@"%@",sender.title);
        }
    }
