Question

I have two view controllers name RootViewController and SecondViewController. In the FirstViewController I have this NSMutableArray

@interface RootViewController : UITableViewController {

NSMutableArray *allClasses;}@property (nonatomic,retain) NSMutableArray *allClasses;

In the RootViewController I populate the UITableView with all the objects within allClasses

In my SecondViewController I have

@interface SecondViewController : UIViewController <UITextFieldDelegate,UIPickerViewDelegate> {

NSMutableArray *arrayStrings;}

I have a method that adds new NSStrings to the arrayStrings. My goal is to be able to pass the arrayStrings to the RootViewController by trying something similar to allClasses = arrayStrings. That way when the RootViewController is loaded it can populate with new information.

How would I got about accomplishing that task?

Answer 1

in RootViewController implement

-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated

this delegate method. Inside this method

write

self.allClasses = SecondViewControllerObj.arrayStrings;

SecondViewControllerObj is the object of SecondViewController declared in RootViewController as a member and which is used to navigate to that view

like

if(SecondViewControllerObj == nil)
    {
        SecondViewControllerObj = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"SecondViewController" bundle:nil];
    }

        [self.navigationController pushViewController:SecondViewControllerObj animated:YES];
