when i use dismissviewcontrolleranimated , i got exc_bad_access - ios

I got an error exc_bad_access,when i use dismissviewcontrolleranimated
the presentViewController code is:
TestViewController *testViewController=[[TestViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *nav=[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:testViewController];
[self presentViewController:nav animated:YES completion:^{
NSLog(#"presentViewController is finish");
}];
but,when i remove UINavigationController ,is error is disappear.
like this:
TestViewController *testViewController=[[TestViewController alloc] init];
[self presentViewController:testViewController animated:YES completion:^{
NSLog(#"presentViewController is finish");
}];
Thanks for help.

Present View Controller is presented over a "Root View Controller" not a UINavigationController.
You should present your VC from the Parent VC or Base VC like this
TestViewController *testViewController=[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"storyboardIDofViewController"];//set the storyboard ID of the TestViewController in your storyboard by selecting attribute inspector after selecting the view controller.
[self presentViewController:testViewController animated:YES completion:^{
NSLog(#"presentViewController is finish");
}];
This is the correct way to present a VC from another VC.

UINavigationController have Push and Pull transitions and you are trying to apply Modal Transition to it.

Creating modal view from another modal view fails

In a view that was created modally, pressing a button causes the modal view to be dismissed and another modal view to load.
- (void)loadLanguageSelectionView {
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
UIViewController *languageSelectionController = [[LanguageSelectionViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
[languageSelectionController setModalPresentationStyle:UIModalPresentationCustom];
[languageSelectionController setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve];
[self presentViewController:languageSelectionController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
The following error is thrown when this code block executes:
DenkoStation[4259:73173] Warning: Attempt to present <LanguageSelectionViewController: 0x7b185430> on <ViewController: 0x79f52e50> whose view is not in the window hierarchy!
What surprises me is the fact that the code was running happily before I made some changes to my code as outlined here.
Where's the mistake?
Because you are trying to present a viewController on top of a viewController which is already dismissed and no longer in window hierarchy.
What you can try is, you can take the ParentViewController reference from current viewController and then you can present new viewController on ParentViewController Like This :
- (void)loadLanguageSelectionView {
UIViewController *parentController = self.presentingViewController;
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
UIViewController *languageSelectionController = [[LanguageSelectionViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
[languageSelectionController setModalPresentationStyle:UIModalPresentationCustom];
[languageSelectionController setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve];
[parentController presentViewController:languageSelectionController animated:YES completion:nil];
}];
}

PushViewController doesn't pushes after dismissingViewController

I am developing iPhone app, where i got stuck at one point.
The error i am facing is, i have one presentViewController on which i have one button, on click of that button i am dismissing my presentViewController and after dismissing i want to push My view controller but it doesn't pushes.
Code on PresentViewController:
- (IBAction)ButtonClick:(id)sender {
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
[Obj MethodCall];
}];
}
after dismissing PreviousViewController:
-(void) MethodCall
{
NSLog(#" -- MethodCall Success --");
[self.navigationController pushViewController:[[NewViewController alloc] init] animated:YES];
}
My log shows -- MethodCall Success -- but it does not pushes my view.
Where i am doing mistake ?
Please help and thanks for reading.
The problem with you is I think you are not having UINavigationController as a rootViewController of the viewController from which you have to navigate. So please try to add a UINavigationController as a parent view or rootView of the vieController from which you want to push another viewController.
- (IBAction)ButtonClick:(id)sender {
NewViewController *newView = [[NewViewController alloc] init]
[self presentViewController:newView animated:YES completion:nil];
}

Instantiate UINavigationController on button action

I have simple application with only one main view, which has 'Settings' button, and settings are tree-grouped, so I wand to present them in navigation controller. And I don't want navigationController in main view, because I don't want navigation bar there.
That's why I don't instantiate navigationController in application: didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:. And when I check self.navigationController in 'Settings' button handler, it returns nil.
So I wrote this: (I use ARC)
- (void)doSettings
{
NSLog(#"%#", self.navigationController); // prints nothing
SettingsViewController *settingsViewController = [SettingsViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] init];
[self.view.window setRootViewController:navigationController];
[navigationController pushViewController:settingsViewController animated:YES];
}
This works, although it pushes settingsViewController without animation (don't know why).
Is this generally the correct way to do - to change rootViewController in the middle of running app?
And if yes - than when I'm done with Settings, I probably need to set rootViewController back to current viewController, as it was before I tapped 'Settings'?
I think you want to create a navigation controller that you will present modally; the following will do:
SettingsViewController* settingsViewController = [[SettingsViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] init];
[navigationController pushViewController:settingsViewController animated:YES];
[self presentViewController: navigationController animated: YES completion:nil];
where self here is the view controller you want to trigger the modal view controller from.
since you present modally the navigation controller you can dismiss it within the code source of your settingsViewController by accessing its navigation controller:
[self.navigationController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion: nil];
To answer your question setting the rootViewController is not the correct way. Present the new vc modally through the presentViewController method.
A better way is to build the navigation vc and present it over your main vc (not replace your main vc).
- (void)doSettings
{
NSLog(#"%#", self.navigationController); // prints nothing
SettingsViewController *settingsViewController = [SettingsViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController: settingsViewController];
[self presentViewController: navigationController animated:YES completion:^{}];
}
Your main vc might realize (maybe as a delegate) that the settings flow is complete. It can then dismiss the presented navigation controller with:
- (void)dismissViewControllerAnimated:(BOOL)flag completion:(void (^)(void))completion
Alternatively, the setting flow could dismiss itself...
// somewhere in the settings vc or a vc it pushes, when we decide settings are done
self.navigationController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{}];
Have navigation in main view and have below line (which will hide navigation bar)
[[self navigationController] setNavigationBarHidden:YES animated:YES];
(I would say have this in viewWillAppear and viewDidLoad both, BUT in viewWillAppear is MUST).
Now in second view, to show navigation bar
[[self navigationController] setNavigationBarHidden:NO animated:YES];
Hope this will solve your problem...

Muiltple Modal UIViewControllers | Dismiss Top Modal UIViewController Only

My UIViewController stack looks as follows:
+------ UIViewController_C (presented)
+---- UIViewController_B (presented)
+-- UIViewController_A (pushed)
When I call -dismissViewController:animated on UIViewController_C, UINavigationController dismisses both UIViewController_C and UIViewController_B together, as per the docs with animation on _C, and none on _B.
What is the most compliant way to dismiss _C only?
try as below
after pushing to UIViewController_A present UIViewController_B as below code.
UIViewController_B *bbp=[[UIViewController_B alloc]initWithNibName:#"UIViewController_B" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *passcodeNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:bbp];
passcodeNavigationController.navigationBar.hidden=YES;
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:passcodeNavigationController animated:YES];
[passcodeNavigationController release];
now from UIViewController_B try to present in UIViewController_C as below code.
UIViewController_C *bbp=[[UIViewController_C alloc]initWithNibName:#"UIViewController_C" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *passcodeNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:bbp];
passcodeNavigationController.navigationBar.hidden=YES;
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:passcodeNavigationController animated:YES];
[passcodeNavigationController release];
last and final thing on every back button of view controller write below line of code.
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
if you want more help than comment bellow.
One Solution:
UIViewControllers presented modally are not necessarily deallocated on -dismissViewController:animated.
This means that by passing a reference to UIViewController_A through _B to _C, you can call -presentViewController:animated and -dismissViewController:animated for the respective UIViewControllers via UIViewController_A.
Code:
1. UIViewController_B
- (void) showUIViewController_C {
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:TRUE completion:^{
UIViewController_C *controller_C = [[UIViewController_C alloc] init];
controller_C.parentController = self;
[self.parentController controller_C animated:TRUE completion:nil];
}];
}
2. UIViewController_C
- (void) dismissUIViewController_C {
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:TRUE completion:^{
[self.parentController.parentController presentViewController:self.parentController animated:TRUE completion:nil];
}];
}
Where I am using *parentController as the naming convention for whatever class your previous UIViewController on the stack may be.
It dips back to UIViewController_A briefly because I am calling -dismiss and -present in the completion block, though that actually looks rather fun.

iOS presented UINavigationController gets dismissed after it performs a popViewController

In my app i present a UINavigationController modally with a UIViewController as its rootViewController. I do it in form style. I added a second UIViewController which is also in form style and i can push to it fine. However when i perform a popViewController action after the second UIViewcontroller gets popped onto the first, the whole modally presented UIViewController gets dismissed. However i don't perform any dismissing and the dismissing function doesn't get triggered by accident either.
Any ideas why it's happening?
Sincerely,
Zoli
EDIT:
That's how i'm presenting the modal viewcontrollers with a navcontroller:
if(!welcomeScreenAlreadyPresented) {
welcomeScreenViewController = [[WAWelcomeViewController alloc]init];
}
welcomeScreenNavController = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:welcomeScreenViewController];
[welcomeScreenNavController setModalTransitionStyle: UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve];
[welcomeScreenNavController setModalPresentationStyle:UIModalPresentationFormSheet];
[welcomeScreenNavController setNavigationBarHidden:YES animated:NO];
[self.navigationController presentViewController:welcomeScreenNavController animated:YES completion:nil];
That's how i'm navigation in WAWelcomeViewController.m
registerViewController = [[WARegisterViewController alloc]init];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:registerViewController animated:YES];
And in WARegisterViewController.m that's how i pop back
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
What you need to do is put the viewController you want to push inside another UINavigationController.
registerViewController = [[WARegisterViewController alloc]init];
UINavigationController *modalNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:registerViewController]; // autorelease if you are not using ARC
[self presentViewController:navController animated:YES completion:^{}];
You might want to add the modalNavigationController as a property to later call popViewControllerAnimated: on it.
