Question

In my subclass of NSObject I would like to call something like

    [[self navController] presentModalViewController:myView animated:YES];

But none of my tries were successful. How can I call a modal view if I’m not in a subclass of UIViewController?

Solution:

#import "myProjectNameAppDelegate.h"
// ...
MyViewController *myView = [[MyViewController alloc] init];
myProjectNameAppDelegate *appDelegate = (myProjectNameAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[[appDelegate navController] presentModalViewController:myView animated:YES];

I don’t see a way to display a modal view without a ViewController. You have to store a reference to a UIViewController in your class so you can access it. Or setup a property in your AppDelegate, which you can get by calling [[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
