Question

I want to know how do we cancel a segue in program when some condition is false?

Below is my code snippet:

if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"Information Segue"])
{   
    NSFetchRequest *request = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init];
    NSEntityDescription *entity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Login" inManagedObjectContext:self.managedObjectContext];
    NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@" ANY userid==%@ AND password==%@",_loginTextfield.text, _passwordTextField.text];
    [request setEntity:entity];
    [request setPredicate:predicate];
    NSError *anyError=Nil;
    NSArray *fetchedObjects = [self.managedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:request error:&anyError];
    if ([fetchedObjects count] )
    {
        useridentered = _loginTextfield.text;
        passwordentered = _passwordTextField.text;

        InformationTVC *informationTVC = segue.destinationViewController;
        informationTVC.managedObjectContext = self.managedObjectContext;             
    }
    else
    {
       /*  want to put my cancel the segue and remain in the login view */ 
    }
}

If any one could guide me it would be a great help.

The reference for the segue: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/DOCUMENTATION/UIKit/Reference/UIStoryboardSegue_Class/Reference/Reference.html
Has no public method that would allow you to cancel the segue.

It seems to me that would be easier to decide to do the segue or not, based on the conditions, before the segue starts happening, but that is up to you.
