I need to pass data between two ViewControllers but without UIButton, in a few words, I need to access a variable which is in other ViewController.
My code is:
LoginViewController *lvc;
NSString name=lvc.name;

Answer 1

This specific case might be a little easier than delegates.
From what I see, you're trying to pass login credentials (name/login/password/something). I would use two things depending on the actual matter here.
Either NSUserDefaults or -performSegueWithIdentifier:
NSUserDefaults is a file that is loaded in every app that you can read and edit, simply using the following commands :
Setting a variable :
NSString *aName;
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]setObject:aName forKey:#"userName"];
Getting a variable :
NSString *aName = [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]objectForKey:#"userName"];
Note that you can save the following objects NSDictionary, NSArray, NSString, NSNumber, NSData, and probably a couple that I'm forgetting but someone can edit if I do.
Note that this file is loaded at every startup, so you don't wanna use that as a database but more of a small-sized storage easy to use, like for user name, preferences/settings, and stuff like that.
The other way is using performsegue between two controllers, but that requires storyboards.
Drag a segue between two of your controllers, name it (for example) fromLoginToHome. I'm assuming that the flow goes from the login controller to the home controller.
when you move between the two views (when the user presses "Login" for example), call this method
[self performSegueWithidentifier:#"fromLoginToHome" sender:self];
Then you'll need to implement this method, that is usually there but in a comment block (it's always like that when you create your Vc)
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender {
if([segue.identifier isEqualToString:#"fromLoginToHome"]){
HomeViewController *vc = (HomeViewController*)segue.destinationViewController;
vc.myName = _myName;
}
}

Answer 2

Xcode using delegate to pass data between controllers This is for child to parent by usuing delegates
And For parent to child,you can use segues simply.
HTH!enjoy Coding.

Answer 3

You can have a look of delegate method in here delegate. can you tell me if you are looking for delegate or not
Try using as below
FirstViewController.h
#interface FirstViewController: UIViewController
- (void)GetItNow;
FirstViewController.m
- (void)GetItNow{
NSLog(#"I acheived"); }
- (IBAction)goToSecondView:(id)sender {
SecondViewController* Second= [[SecondViewControlleralloc] initWithNibName:#"SecondViewController" bundle:nil];
rqVC.addId = self.addId;
[self.view addSubview:Second.view];
}
SecondViewController.h
#property (nonatomic, assign) id delegate;
SecondViewController.m
- (IBAction)Action_LoadFunds:(id)sender {
[self.view removeFromSuperview];
[_delegate GetItNow];
}
