navigationcontroller and tabbarcontroller - ios

When I push a view controller vc4 on navigtion controller I can change settings of vc4 navigation item (title, barbuttons etc) but when I push vc4 in a tabbarcontroller and I change navigation item settings the changes are not displayed.
The Code below is executed, when I tap on a cell in a tableviewcontroller. the tableviewcontroller was pushed on navigationcontroller which is the rootViewController set in MyAppDelegate.
UITabBarController* tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
MyViewController1* vc1 = [[MyViewController1 alloc] init];
MyViewController2* vc2 = [[MyViewController2 alloc] init];
MyViewController3* vc3 = [[MyViewController3 alloc] init];
MyNavRootViewController* vc4 = [[MyNavRootViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController* navController = [[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:vc4];
NSArray* controllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:vc1, vc2, vc3, navController, nil];
tabBarController.viewControllers = controllers;
[[self navigationController] pushViewController:tabBarController animated:NO];

navigation controller without using story boards

SecondViewController *testAppViewController2Obj =[[SecondViewController alloc]initWithNibName:#"TestAppViewController2" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:testAppViewController2Obj animated:YES];
ContainerViewController *container = [[ContainerViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *nav = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:container];
UINavigationBar *navBar = [[UINavigationBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, [UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size.width, 65)];
container.navigationItem.title = #"Frames";
self.window.rootViewController = nav;
i hope it works
In order to push a new view controller you should first create a view controller, VC1, link it with a navigation controller and then link the navigation controller to the rootViewController in the AppDelegate
#AppDelegate
FirstViewController *VC1 = [FirstViewController new];
UINavigationController *nVC = [UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:VC1];
self.window.rootViewController = nVC;
Then when VC1 gets pushed, you can create another view controller and push it like this:
#Now in VC1
SecondViewController *VC2 = [SecondViewController new];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:VC2 animated:YES];

add Navigation Bar to Tap bar

I want to have a common navigation bar to RecieptViewController and StockViewController and the bar should contain back button to go back to InventoryViewController.....
this code is written in InventoryViewController viewDidLoad:-
RecieptViewController *firstVC=[[RecieptViewController alloc]init];
UITabBarItem *itme1=[[UITabBarItem alloc]initWithTitle:#"First" image:nil tag:1];
itme1.title=#"Reciept";
[firstVC setTabBarItem:itme1];
StockViewController *secondView=[[StockViewController alloc]init];
UITabBarItem *item2=[[UITabBarItem alloc]initWithTitle:#"Second" image:nil tag:2];
item2.title=#"Stock";
[secondView setTabBarItem:item2];
[tapBarController setViewControllers:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:firstVC,secondView,nil]];
If you want to add navigation controllers to your UITabBarController then you must try the following:
UIViewController *viewController1, *viewController2;
UINavigationController *navigationController1, *navigationController2;
viewController1 = [[RecieptViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"RecieptViewController" bundle:nil];
viewController2 = [[StockViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"StockViewController" bundle:nil];
navigationController1 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController1];
navigationController2 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController2];
[tapBarController setViewControllers:[NSArray navigationController1,navigationController2,nil]];

how to add tab bar controller from the second view controller [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
Showing login view controller before main tab bar controller
(1 answer)
Closed 9 years ago.
Im beginner to IOS app development learning.
I have a login screen as my first view controller and i need the second view controller to be a tab bar view controller .with 4 different tabs and i have 4 different XIB's for them.
some one help me to go ahead.
Best way you can do is Present the login screen modally when the app starts from your tab bar controller first screen, add code for presenting login screen in viewWillAppear and after login dismiss the screen. You can create TabBarController in appDelegate like this
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
UITabBarController tabBarController=[[UITabBarController alloc] init];
FirstViewController *firstVC = [[UIViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"FirstVC" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *firstNavController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController: firstVC];
SecondViewController *secondVC = [[UIViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"secondVC" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *secondNavController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:secondVC];
tabBarController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: firstNavController, secondNavController, nil];
tabBarController.selectedIndex=0;
tabBarController.delegate = self;
UITabBarItem *item1 = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Movies" image:[UIImage imageNamed:#"MoviesTAB.png"] tag:1];
[firstVC setTabBarItem:item1];
UITabBarItem *item2 = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Music" image:[UIImage imageNamed:#"musicTAB.png"] tag:2];
[seconfVC setTabBarItem:item2];
tabController.tabBar.translucent = NO;
tabController.tabBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlack;
tabBarController.tintColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
self.window.rootViewController = tabController;
return YES;
}
Best way is use storyboard and there just have one initial UIViewController and from that make segue to UITabBarViewController.

If you want to make it through xib make a UITabBarViewController and add viewControllers to the array of object of that UITabBarViewController's object.
Sample code :
NSMutableArray *arrViewControllers = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
UIViewController *tabController;
UIImage *tabImage ;
NSString *tabTitle;
for (int i= 0; i < 3; i++) {
switch (i) {
case 0:
tabController = [[ViewController alloc] init];
tabImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"icon1.png"];
tabTitle = #"Text";
break;
case 1:
tabController = [[ImageDemoViewController alloc] init];
tabImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"icon2.png"];
tabTitle = #"Image";
break;
case 2:
tabController = [[TableDemoViewController alloc] init];
tabImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"icon3.png"];
tabTitle = #"Table";
break;
}
// set the image and title using some properties of UIViewController
tabController.tabBarItem.image = tabImage;
tabController.tabBarItem.title = tabTitle;
//add objects to array
[arrViewControllers addObject:tabController];
[tabController release];
}
_baseController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
_baseController.viewControllers = arrViewControllers;
[arrViewControllers release];
go to your appDelegate
1.create a viewController for login screen.
LoginViewController *viewController1 = [[LoginViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"LoginViewController" bundle:nil];
2.create a navigationController with root view your login ViewController.
UINavigationController *nVC = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController1];
3.make navigationController to root view of window.
self.window.rootViewController = self.nVC;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
Now go to Touch-Up-Inside method of login button in LoginViewController.
1.After validation of password and userId initialise your viewControllers for tabbar and TabbarViewController.
UiViewController ...*yourViewControllers,..,
UITabBarController *YourtabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
2.Now add these viewControllers to your tabbarController.
YourtabBarController.viewControllers = #[ YourViewController1,YourViewController2,YourViewController3,......];
3.Finally push this tabbarController to navigationControllere.
[self.navigationController pushViewController:YourtabBarController animated:NO];

How to reorder TabBar's Tabs programmatically?

Is there a way to reorder tabs of a TabBar programmatically on xCode?
Thank you a lot, Matteo!
Try this:
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
MyViewController* vc1 = [[MyViewController alloc] init];
MyOtherViewController* vc2 = [[MyOtherViewController alloc] init];
NSArray* controllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:vc1, vc2, nil];
tabBarController.viewControllers = controllers;
// Add the tab bar controller's current view as a subview of the window
[window addSubview:tabBarController.view];
}

UITabBarController is lost when set a new ViewController

I have the following TabBarController with the uiTabBarItems
[Item1, Item2, Item3, Item4]
This struct works fine (Every ViewController is displayed correctly), my problem is:
When I change to another ViewController from Item1, Item2 ... the TabBarItems bottom are hidden/lose
[, , , ]
I'm using the following code to change of viewController from Item1 ViewController
NewViewController *controller = [[NewViewController alloc]init];
[self.tabBarController setViewControllers:[[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:controller, nil]];
is correct change of viewcontroller with the code showed previously?
EDIT.-
Basically I want to navigate on ViewControllers of Item1 (UITabBar) without lost the UITabBarItems
If you want to set the active tab, you should't use setViewControllers: since that replaces all your tabs. You should use setSelectedIndex: on your UITabBarController instead.
Try this.
call this method , where to present UITabBar
In .h,
#property (strong, nonatomic) UINavigationController *navigation;
#property(nonatomic, strong) UITabBarController *tabbarcontroller;
In .m,
-(void)loadtabview
{
self.tabbarcontroller = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
NSMutableArray *localControllersArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:4];
self.firstViewController = [[FirstViewController alloc]initWithNibName:#"firstViewController" bundle:nil];
navigation = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.firstViewController];
self.viewController.navigationItem.title=#"First";
[localControllersArray addObject:navigation];
self.secondViewController = [[secondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"secondViewController" bundle:nil];
navigation = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:secondViewController];
self.secondViewController.navigationItem.title=#"second";
[localControllersArray addObject:navigation];
self.ThirdViewController = [[Third ViewController alloc]initWithNibName:#"Third ViewController" bundle:nil];
navigation = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:ThirdViewController];
self.secondViewController.navigationItem.title=#"Third";
[localControllersArray addObject:navigation];
tabbarcontroller.viewControllers = localControllersArray;
self.tabbarcontroller.delegate = self;
[self.tabbarcontroller setSelectedIndex:0];
[self.window addSubview:tabbarcontroller.view];
}
