Notification only called the function when observer_ViewController is active
AppDelegate.m
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:kNewShipNotifaction object:ship];
observer_ViewController.m
-(void)viewDidLoad{
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(newShipCome:) name:kNewShipNotifaction object:nil];
}
- (void)newShipCome:(NSNotification *)notifacation{
[self updateNotifyWithShip:notifacation.object];
}
Notification didn't call the newShipCome:(NSNotification *)notification method when I'm in another viewController. When I switched to the observer_ViewController, the method still didn't get called.
So...how can I get notification update correctly when I'm not in the observer_ViewController ?
remove de-register code form viewWillDisappear it will work

I have two class which uses NSNotification to communicate with each other.
Currently, i have an issue with notification being fired twice, i've double/triple/even more checked that observer is not added more then 1 time, notification not being posted twice, did global search on my project for same notification.
My code is like below
Added Notification Observer
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:notification_deleteMediaFromGallery object:nil];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(notificationReceiver:) name:notification_deleteMediaFromGallery object:nil];
Notification Receiver
- (void)notificationReceiver:(NSNotification*)notification {
if ([notification.name isEqualToString:notification_deleteMediaFromGallery]) {
if ([[notification.userInfo objectForKey:#"kind"] integerValue]==GalleryKindPhoto) {
//My statements
}
else if ([[notification.userInfo objectForKey:#"kind"] integerValue]==GalleryKindVideo) {
//My statements
}
}
}
Post Notification
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
[_browser reloadData];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:notification_deleteMediaFromGallery object:nil userInfo:#{#"index":#(_browser.currentIndex), #"kind":#(self.kind), #"function":[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%s",__PRETTY_FUNCTION__]}];
});
I have also tried this solution by EmptyStack but not get it to work.
I'll be very thankful to you if you could help me solve this issue.
Thanks.
Edit
NOTE
I've added observer in my viewdidload, and cant add/remove observer from viewwillappera/viewwillappear or viewdidappear/viewdiddisappear because the next viewcontroller which will be pushed on current viewcontroller will post notifications
I think you need to write dealloc method in your view controller. And remove All Notification observer in dealloc method,
- (void)dealloc
{
// Deregister observer
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:notification_deleteMediaFromGallery object:nil];
}
Hi please make sure your method is not calling two time from where you are firing notification.
& please add your notification observer in viewWillDisappear method.
I'm not sure about how to achieve this and hence i'm asking this question.
I have 2 ViewController(VC) named abVC and xyVC.
abVC contains only TableView and xyVC contains only a button.
When i tap a button on xyVC, it should reload tableview inside abVC without moving to that abVC.
Is it possible ? If yes.. then please help me,How to do that?
You can do it with both block and NSNotification.
With block you can implement it as follows:
make a property as follows in xyzVC.h:
#property(strong,nonatomic)void(^callBack)();
Synthesize this property in xyzVC.m
#synthesize callBack
Call this block in Buttons click event
- (IBAction)btnClick:(UIButton *)sender {
if (callBack)
{
callBack();
}
}
Implement it in abcVC where you want call back:
[abVC setCallBack:^{
//reload your tableview here
}];
With NSNotification you can implement it as follows:
Register for receiving notification in abcVC.m
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(reloadTableView) name:#"ReloadTable" object:nil];
- (void)reloadTableView{
// Reload your tableview here
}
Now post the notification from xyzVC
- (IBAction)btnClick:(UIButton *)sender {
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:#"ReloadTable" object:nil];
}
Note: If you are using NSNotification then don't forget to remove it when your view controller is dismissed
I hope this will help you :)
Add this line in your button action method
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:#"ReloadTable" object:nil];
Add this code where you have implemented table, so in abVC:
inside viewDidLoad:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(reloadTableViewData) name:#"ReloadTable" object:nil];
Add following method
- (void)reloadTableViewData{
[self.myTableView reloadData];
}
Implement dealloc method (to prevent crash)
- (void)dealloc{
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:#"ReloadTable" object:nil];
}
Below is what I have.
MainViewController.m
- (IBAction)sideMenuAction:(id)sender {
NSLog(#"login==sideMenuAction");
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:#"ShowMySideMenuNotification" object:self];
}
NotificationListener.m
-(void)viewDidLoad {
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:#"ShowMySideMenuNotification" object:nil];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(adjustShowMenu) name:#"ShowMySideMenuNotification" object:nil];
}
-(void) adjustShowMenu {
NSLog(#"notification adjustShowMenu=");
}
Now when I click side menu button in MainViewController, what I was expecting is call adjustShowMenu from NotificationListener once, however it is called twice.
Below is the NSLog for the same.
2015-01-20 12:27:30.798 abc[699:169314] login==sideMenuAction
2015-01-20 12:27:30.798 abc[699:169314] notification adjustShowMenu=
2015-01-20 12:27:30.799 abc[699:169314] notification adjustShowMenu=
What I was expecting is
2015-01-20 12:27:30.798 abc[699:169314] login==sideMenuAction
2015-01-20 12:27:30.798 abc[699:169314] notification adjustShowMenu=
Any idea what is going wrong?
Note: I also tried in viewDidAppear instead of viewDidLoad, but its giving same result.
When I searched online, many answers asked to removeObserver. I did same, but still twice notification is getting called.
As per answer here, I make changes as below and its working fine now.
-(void) viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(adjustShowMenu) name:#"ShowMySideMenuNotification" object:nil];
}
-(void) viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:#"ShowMySideMenuNotification" object:nil];
}
Hi i am trying to use NSNotification center in my application.The selector method is not being called from the code.I found similar questions in this site like this, but still i am unable to resolve the error.
i am posting notification in appdelegate did finish launching as:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:#"ualert" object:self userInfo:userDict];
adding an observer in one of the view controller as:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:#selector(remoteNotificationReceived:)
name:#"ualert"
object:nil];
my selector method is:
- (void)remoteNotificationReceived:(NSNotification *)notification
{
NSLog(#"Notification: %#", notification.userInfo);
}
removing observer as:
- (void)dealloc
{
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self];
}
You are posting ualert in applicationDidFinishLaunching which will necessarily occur before your view controller is loaded (and therefore before you have added the observer for the notification).
I have a UITabBarController with some tab and in all of them i have:
-(void)viewDidappear:(BOOL)animated{
......
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserverForName:kNotificationName object:nil queue: nil, usingBlock{...}
}
and
-(void)viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated{
......
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self];
}
In another class i post the notification with name kNotificationName:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotification:kNotificationName object:nil];
I've set some log on all of this methods, and the order they are called is correct but...if i switch from First to Second tab (and the notification is posted), the first and the second tab receive the notification (but the viewDidDisappear of the first tab is called!).
If from second tab i go to third tab, the first, second, and third tab receive the notification.
I've tried to use:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:postNotification:kNotificationName object:nil];
but the behaviour is the same. All observer are notified.
EDIT1:
As suggest to the other topic i've moved all in viewWillAppear: and viewWillDisappear:, but this haven't have any effect.
I've tried to remove the observer after have received the notification, like this:
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserverForName:kDLSyncEngineSyncCompletedNotificationName object:nil queue:nil usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {
....
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:kDLSyncEngineSyncCompletedNotificationName object:nil];
}];
}
But, using this (bad) approach too, the notification is received to the first tab too (i've added this code only on the first tab, to check if after press the second tab, the first tab is receiving again the notification).
EDIT2 - SOLVED - (but what is the difference?)
Instead of using *addObserverForName:object:queue:usingBlock*: I've used *addObserver:selector:name:object:* and in this way all works.
Apple documentation say this for the method with usingBlock:
The block is copied by the notification center and (the copy) held
until the observer registration is removed.
Sure, I've called removeObserver....
Inside the block in the addObserver method -
usingBlock:^(NSNotification *notification){
/*
do something
*/
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self];
}];
As you might have already checked this in documentation -
Be sure to invoke removeObserver: or removeObserver:name:object: before notificationObserver or any object specified in addObserver:selector:name:object: is deallocated.
