MMDrawerController with splitview - ios

Question

i have an app for both iphone and ipad.
a classic master/detail app for iphone and splitview for ipad.
I want to add a slide out menu using MMDrawerController Github
I manage to add it for iphone but i d'ont understand how to add it for ipad and to keep the splitview / NavigationController behavior.
Original code :
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone) {
MyMasterViewController *masterViewController = [[MyMasterViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"MyMasterViewController_iPhone" bundle:nil];
self.navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:masterViewController];
self.window.rootViewController = self.navigationController;
} else {
MyMasterViewController *masterViewController = [[MyMasterViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"MyMasterViewController_iPad" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *masterNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:masterViewController];
MyDetailViewController *detailViewController = [[MyDetailViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"MyDetailViewController_iPad" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *detailNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:detailViewController];
masterViewController.detailViewController = detailViewController;
self.splitViewController = [[UISplitViewController alloc] init];
self.splitViewController.delegate = detailViewController;
self.splitViewController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:masterNavigationController, detailNavigationController, nil];
self.window.rootViewController = self.splitViewController;
}
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
Trying to use MMDrawerControler :
UIViewController * leftSideDrawerViewController = [[MMExampleLeftSideDrawerViewController alloc] init];
NSString *strViewMaster = #"MyMasterViewController_iPhone";
UIViewController * centerViewController = [[MyMasterViewController alloc] initWithNibName:strViewMaster bundle:nil];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] != UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone) {
strViewMaster = #"MyDetailViewController_iPad";
centerViewController = [[MyDetailViewController alloc] initWithNibName:strViewMaster bundle:nil];
}
// unused
//UIViewController * rightSideDrawerViewController = [[MMExampleRightSideDrawerViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController * navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:centerViewController];
MMDrawerController * drawerController = [[MMDrawerController alloc]
initWithCenterViewController:navigationController
leftDrawerViewController:leftSideDrawerViewController];
[drawerController setMaximumRightDrawerWidth:200.0];
[drawerController setOpenDrawerGestureModeMask:MMOpenDrawerGestureModePanningNavigationBar];
[drawerController setCloseDrawerGestureModeMask:MMCloseDrawerGestureModeAll];
[drawerController
setDrawerVisualStateBlock:^(MMDrawerController *drawerController, MMDrawerSide drawerSide, CGFloat percentVisible) {
MMDrawerControllerDrawerVisualStateBlock block;
block = [[MMExampleDrawerVisualStateManager sharedManager]
drawerVisualStateBlockForDrawerSide:drawerSide];
if(block){
block(drawerController, drawerSide, percentVisible);
}
}];
//centerViewController.mm_drawerController = drawerController;
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
[self.window setRootViewController:drawerController];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
So, on the ipad, the slide out menu is working, the detailview is loaded but i don't know how to define the masterViewcontroller / navigationcontroller so it does not work..
(sorry, i m a real nood with objective c and ios concept like you can see)
thank you

Unfortunately, Apple enforces a UISplitViewController to be the rootViewController of a window, which means you can't place it inside a container view controller. You'll have to write your own similar split view controller implementation in order to drop it in another container view controller.

MMDrawer Doesn't works with SplitViewController. Try using MFSlideMenu. It works with almost all types of controllers.

The MMDrawerController will not work with a SplitViewController. (as said int the github project description).
