Question

Well I have read those posts and tutorials but they made me more confused:

url 1
quest 1
quest 2

What i want is to do this:

At the beginning my app, has a table view. when I press a row, it should take me to another view which has tabs.

What I did so far was these:

1) Created a navigation controller , and there is my tableview. When I press a row, a single view opens. In that view (with its own .xib file) I added tab bars items.

You can see pictures here:

But now, I don’t know how to make it when pressing a tab bar item, to open a new view. I am trying to embed my view in a controller but I cannot.

2) Then I tried this:
Having my navigation controller as before and I added in storyboard a tabbar controller like in that picture:

But I cannot connect them. My first view is class “SkiCenter” and code I am using is:

SkiCenter *myDetViewCont = [[SkiCenter alloc] initWithNibName:@"SkiCenter" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
    myDetViewCont.ski_center=[centers objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    [self.navigationController pushViewController:myDetViewCont animated:YES]; // "Pushing the controller on the screen"
    [myDetViewCont release]; // releasing controller from the memory
    myDetViewCont = nil;

and I get SIGBRT that says something about .nib file for “SkiCenter”.

Can you suggest a sollution in either 1 or 2?

just to make it more clear:
Solution 1:
pressing the row gets me to a single uiview named skicentermain. I have added several tabbaritems but I do not know how to make them open new views.

Sollution 2:
Inserted a tabbar controller. Its first tab is SkiCenter. But when pressing the row, I get a sigbart error. it says something about the nib file of SkiCenter.

Answer 1

If you decide to use storyboard you can simply put an identifier to any view controller from attributes inspector and then instantiate it with its id.

UIStoryboard * storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil];

[[self navigationController] pushViewController:[storyBoard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"ViewControllerID"] animated:YES];
