viewDidAppear not getting called

Question

In my main UIViewController I am adding a homescreen view controller as subviews:

   UINavigationController *controller = [[UINavigationController alloc] ini         


        

Answer 1

Had a same problem My container view controller did retain a child view controller via a property, but did not add a child view controller to its childViewControllers array.

My solution was to add this line of code in the container view controller

[self addChildViewController: childViewController];

After that UIKit started forwarding appearance methods to my child view controller just as expected

I also changed the property attribute from strong to weak just for beauty
