Navigating to different ViewControllers from UITableView - ios

Question

I am new to IOS Objective C Programming. I am trying a very simple app. My main page is standard View Controller where i have a simple UITableView. What i am trying to do is to make a different view controller to come up when user select different cell on the Table View. Currently i populate 3 simple lines. I have searched for many historical discussion but can't seem to work (from segue options to simple instantiate view options). I give a snip of my code and hope that anyone can point me what i am doing wrong here.

Answer 1

Storyboard
Ensure one are you embed with NavigationController or Not, if Not,
just do the following way
XCode menu --> Editor --> EmbedIn --> Navigation Controller, do like
you get the output of
Step-2
In here we can navigate with two types
Connection Through
Connection less
Connection Through
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
NSString *SegName = #"";
if (indexPath.row == 0)
{
SegName = #"firstSegumeName";
}
else if (indexPath.row == 1)
{
SegName = #"secondSegumeName";
}
else if (indexPath.row == 2)
{
SegName = #"thirdSegumeName";
}
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:SegName sender:self];
}
Connection Less
if use `storyboard ID` with connection less
for example
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
UIViewController *otherViewCon;
if (indexPath.row == 0)
{
otherViewCon = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"yourfirstIdentifierName"];
}
else if (indexPath.row == 1)
{
otherViewCon = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"yoursecondIdentifierName"];
}
else if (indexPath.row == 2)
{
otherViewCon = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"yourthirdIdentifierName"];
}
[self.navigationController pushViewController:otherViewCon animated:YES];
}

Answer 2

Create an array with segue names in the order in which you want to refer to the view controllers from your tableview and then in
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;
you can call
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:[array valueAtIndex:indexPath.row sender:nil];

Answer 3

If its through XIB :
Your_ViewController *vc = [[Your_ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"Your_ViewController" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:vc animated:YES];
If its through StoryBoard :
UIStoryboard *storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Main_storyboard" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
Your_ViewController *vc = [storyBoard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"storyboardID"];
[[self navigationController] pushViewController:vc animated:YES];
If its through Coding :
Your_ViewController *vc = [[Your_ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:vc animated:YES];
For Your questions :
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
// Put above code here according to your requirement....
}

Answer 4

Try this
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
firstViewController *u = [[ContactDetailsVC alloc]init];
u= [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"firstView"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:u animated:YES];
}

Replace last 2 lines of didSelectRowAtIndexPath with:
UINavigationController *navC = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:myView];
[self presentViewController:navC animated:YES completion:nil];
