Question

Really basic question here:

I want to build an app that has a bunch of MasterDetail views that can be accessed from a TabView.

I’d like to start with the MasterDetail project template, but if I do that and toss a TabController onto the front of the storyboard, I get a crash.

terminate called throwing an exception(lldb) 

All I’ve done so far is in the storyboard (literally I made a new MasterDetail project, then went into the storyboard and put a tabcontroller in front of it)

Answer 1

Simple answer is that the template provided for you in Master Detail includes some code you probably don’t want.

In AppDelegate.m look for the following method and simply have it return YES;

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    // Override point for customization after application launch.
    return YES;
}
