Question

My storyboard is like this:

So from navigation controller , i am going to a tab controller.
My tab controller has its classed, named: MYTabBarView

In MyTabBarView.m , in its ViewDidLoad method I created the right bar button item programmatically like this:

 UIBarButtonItem *homeButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Home" style:UIBarButtonSystemItemAction target:self action:@selector(homeButtonAction)];

self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem=homeButton;

my question is how do I write an action for it. I mean if it was a button that was visible in the storyboard, I would “drag and dropped” it in the .h file and in the .m file I would have

the method:

Now what should I do?

- (IBAction)home:(id)sender {
....
}

Answer 1

Use the selector you typed when you created the button:

- (void)homeButtonAction {
    // Code
}

And if you want to pass along the sender use @selector(homeButtonAction:) and the following method:

- (void)homeButtonAction:(id)sender {
    // Code
}
