UITextField doesn't work in my SecondViewController - ios

Question

I have a big noob problem. I new in iOS and I'm trying to do this:
I have two ViewControllers. The first one has an button that if it is pushed, control goes to a second view controller.
That works but the problem is when I try to get data in my second view controller. The UITextfield doesn't work.
I'm trying to display which I insert into textfield in the label. But THE TEXTFIELD DOESN'T WORK :(
I putted the IBOutlets succesfully in the xibs and connect the buttons with their IBActions...
This is my code:
ViewController.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "SecondViewController.h"
#class SecondViewController;
#interface ViewController : UIViewController
#property (strong, nonatomic) SecondViewController *secondViewController;
-(IBAction)buttonClicked:(id)sender;
#end
ViewController.m
#import "ViewController.h"
#implementation ViewController
#synthesize secondViewController;
-(IBAction)buttonClicked:(id)sender {
self.secondViewController = [[SecondViewController alloc]initWithNibName:#"SecondViewController" bundle:nil];
[self presentViewController:self.secondViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
SecondViewController.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#interface SecondViewController : UIViewController {
IBOutlet UITextField *textField;
UIButton *obtener;
IBOutlet UILabel *label;
}
#property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITextField *textField;
#property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UIButton *obtener;
#property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UILabel *label;
-(IBAction)obtenerClicked:(id)sender;
#end
SecondViewController.m
#import "SecondViewController.h"
#implementation SecondViewController
#synthesize obtener, textField, label;
-(IBAction)obtenerClicked:(id)sender {
label.text = textField.text;
}
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
if (self) {
// Custom initialization
}
return self;
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
// Releases the view if it doesn't have a superview.
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Release any cached data, images, etc that aren't in use.
}
#pragma mark - View lifecycle
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.
}
- (void)viewDidUnload
{
[super viewDidUnload];
// Release any retained subviews of the main view.
// e.g. self.myOutlet = nil;
}
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
// Return YES for supported orientations
return YES;
}
#end

Answer 1

In your SecondViewController.h, add this property:
#property(nonatomic, readwrite) NSString* myString;
now in firstViewController's onClick method, add this line
-(IBAction)buttonClicked:(id)sender {
//....... Previous code....
self.secondViewController.myString= #"String to be sent";
}
This will pass the string for you..
if you want to pass the string in text field, use this:
-(IBAction)buttonClicked:(id)sender {
//....... Previous code....
self.secondViewController.textField.text= #"String to be sent";
}
hope it will work fine for your requirement.
UPDATE:
Do the following to get expected results:
1. make your secondViewController a textView delegate.
in your secondViewController.h
replace #interface SecondViewController : UIViewController with #interface SecondViewController : UIViewController<UITextFieldDelegate>
put a button in your secondViewController & create an IBAction for it.
on Click event of button, write this:
self.label.text= self.textfield.text;
tell me if it does not work.
