NavigationController Right to Left in iOS

Question

I am buiding a Right to Left navigation controller to support RTL Languages. After reading some posts in StackOverFlow Push ViewController from Right To Left with UINavigationCo

Answer 1

Inspired by the solutions from @locke I rewrote the code as follows:

1- Define a UIViewController in the appdelegate called preViewController to hold the master view controller.

2- To reference it in the view controllers use the:

AppDelegate *appdelegate=(AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];

3- write the following masterviewcontroller as follows:

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    //create a mutable arry to hold the view controllers and copy the current list of navigation controllers
    //at this point there is only the current view controller in stack

    NSMutableArray *vcs =  [NSMutableArray arrayWithArray:self.navigationController.viewControllers];

    //create a detailed navigation controller
    DetailedViewController *DVC = [[DetailedViewController alloc]initWithNibName:@"DetailedViewController" bundle:nil];

    //create a shared variable enviroment to reference a global variable 
    AppDelegate *appdelegate=(AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];

    //assign the current viewcontroller to the temporary view controller
    appdelegate.preViewController=[self.navigationController.viewControllers lastObject];

    //insert detailed view into the array vcs before the current viewcontroller
        if (![vcs containsObject:DVC]) {
        [vcs insertObject:DVC atIndex:[vcs count]-1];
     }
    // update the self.navigation with the new stack
    [self.navigationController setViewControllers:vcs animated:NO];

    // pop the  othernavigationcontroller from the navigation stack to fake a detailedview controller push 
     [self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

4 - Add a button to replace the default button and define an IBaction (backClicked) for the detailed view controller:

- (IBAction)backClicked:(id)sender{
AppDelegate *appdelegate=(AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
//push the holder view controller to fake a pop back to the master view controller
[self.navigationController pushViewController:appdelegate.preViewController animated:YES];
}
