Send and receive messages through NSNotificationCenter in Objective-C?

Question

I am attempting to send and receive messages through NSNotificationCenter in Objective-C. However, I haven\'t been able to find any examples on how to do this.

Answer 1

This one helped me:

// Add an observer that will respond to loginComplete
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self 
                                             selector:@selector(showMainMenu:) 
                                                 name:@"loginComplete" object:nil];


// Post a notification to loginComplete
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"loginComplete" object:nil];


// the function specified in the same class where we defined the addObserver
- (void)showMainMenu:(NSNotification *)note {
    NSLog(@"Received Notification - Someone seems to have logged in"); 
}
