Question

I’m developing a iphone app that has a main viewcontroller(UITabBarController) with UINavigationControllers in each tab. The problem is that I can’t change the TabBarItem’s data(title and image).

This is how I load the viewcontrollers:

AroundViewController *aroundViewController = [[AroundViewController alloc] init];

UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:aroundViewController];
[[navController navigationBar] setTintColor:[UIColor grayColor]];

UITabBarController *tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];

NSArray *viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:navController, nil];
[tabBarController setViewControllers:viewControllers];

[self presentViewController:tabBarController animated:YES completion:nil];

I’m trying set the tabbaritem in the aroundviewcontroller’s init, but I don’t succeed.
I was reading and one solution was, in the init,

[self setTitle:@"whatever"]; 

This worked but I couldn’t change the image.

Thanks in advance.

I found a solution.
In the viewWillAppear I put:

[[[self navigationController] tabBarItem] setTitle:@"HELLO"];

That works.
