I have a TabBarController and define two tabs in my code like:

NSMutableArray *viewControllerArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithCapacity:2];

DisplayMarketViewController *displayMarketViewController = [[DisplayMarketViewController alloc]init];     
[viewControllerArray addObject:displayMarketViewController];
[displayMarketViewController release];

DisplayDifferenceMarketViewController *displayDifferenceMarketViewController = [[DisplayDifferenceMarketViewController alloc]init];
[viewControllerArray addObject:displayDifferenceMarketViewController];
[displayDifferenceMarketViewController release];
myTabBarController.viewControllers = viewControllerArray;

in my DisplayMarketViewController.m 

self.tabBarItem.title = @"Tab1";
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"1.png"];
self.tabBarItem.image =image;

and DisplayDifferenceMarketViewController.m

self.tabBarItem.title = @"Tab2";
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"2.png"];
self.tabBarItem.image =image;

but the Tab2 isn’t show until the tab item is tapped. How do I solve this problem?

    Your DisplayDifferenceMarketViewController isn’t initialized until it’s accessed by tapping the tab bar. Therefore, the code to change the tab title isn’t executed until you access it.

    Simply put all of your tabBar related code outside the view controllers in the tab bar, with the rest of your tab bar code like so:

    NSMutableArray *viewControllerArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithCapacity:2];

DisplayMarketViewController *displayMarketViewController = [[DisplayMarketViewController alloc]init];     
[viewControllerArray addObject:displayMarketViewController];
[displayMarketViewController release];

DisplayDifferenceMarketViewController *displayDifferenceMarketViewController = [[DisplayDifferenceMarketViewController alloc]init];
[viewControllerArray addObject:displayDifferenceMarketViewController];
[displayDifferenceMarketViewController release];
myTabBarController.viewControllers = viewControllerArray;

[viewControllerArray objectAtIndex:0].tabBarItem.title = @"Tab1";
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"1.png"];
[viewControllerArray objectAtIndex:0].tabBarItem.image =image;

[viewControllerArray objectAtIndex:1].tabBarItem.title = @"Tab2";
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"2.png"];
[viewControllerArray objectAtIndex:1].tabBarItem.image =image;
