Can NOT segue between Storyboards - ios

Question

So I found a nice outline that gives me what I want. However, I can't switch to other storyboards?
How do I segue into other storyboards with a 'built in' window?
Included is my ViewController.M implementation file. This code seems to make a table on its own instead of use the storyboard (navigation controller)...
How do I make it work to segue to other storyboards?
#import "ViewController.h"
#interface ViewController ()
#end
#define getDataURL #"http://??.??.??.??/phpfile12.php"
#implementation ViewController
#synthesize json, storesArray, myTableView;
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
self.navigationController.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = #{NSForegroundColorAttributeName : [UIColor whiteColor]};
[self.navigationController.navigationBar setBackgroundImage:[UIImage new]
forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
self.navigationController.navigationBar.shadowImage = [UIImage new];
self.navigationController.navigationBar.translucent = YES;
self.navigationController.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
//set the title
self.title = #"";
[self retrieveData];
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.

Answer 1

To instantiate a view controller from another storyboard you can use UIStoryboard storyboardWithName
UIViewController *dvc = [[UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"yourStoryboardName" bundle:nil] instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"yourViewIdentifier"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:dvc animated:YES];
This is more a general answer, though.

I don't understand what you exactly asking but for simple segue i used this line of code
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:#"identifier" sender:self];
if you want to segue without linking than you have to give identifier to view controller and use this code below
UIViewController *homeViewController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"identifier"];
[self presentViewController:homeViewController animated:0 completion:nil];

I am not entire sure what you mean by "Segue to other storyboard"? The following code allows you to jump to a totally different view controller tree inside the same storyboard by a click of button or other action.
AppDelegate *delegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Main" bundle:nil];
UIViewController *initViewController = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"SecondScreen"];
delegate.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
delegate.window.rootViewController = initViewController;
[delegate.window makeKeyAndVisible];
Main is the name of your storyboard that you want to jump into.
SecondScreen is the storyboard ID of the view controller. Most likely it is a navigation or a container. You will need to set "SecondScreen" under identity inspector.
