My Rootviewcontroller uses NSURLConnection to get data from a server, and then, based on this data, loads a bunch (like 7) of smaller UIViewControllers that each also use their own NSURLConnection to get some more specific data from the server. But, the problem is, only the RooTViewController is recieving callbacks from:
- (void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)theConnection
the other UIViewControllers never get callbacks…
You should really work with the assumption that only one view controller is active at the time. So if you want the other view controllers to do work, even when they are not visible on the screen, then you should move that logic into some singleton object that does all the network communication. The viewcontroller, when they appear, will simply ask this object for the data.
For the iPhone it is a really bad design to let inactive view controllers do stuff in the background. The only thing they do is manage the view that you currently see on the screen.
