I have many annotations in a mapview (with rightCalloutAccessory
buttons). The button will perform a segue from this mapview
to a tableview
For Swift use this,
override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: AnyObject?) {
var segueID = segue.identifier
if(segueID! == "yourSegueName"){
var yourVC:YourViewController = segue.destinationViewController as YourViewController
yourVC.objectOnYourVC = setObjectValueHere!
}
}
Simply grab a reference to the target view controller in prepareForSegue:
method and pass any objects you need to there. Here's an example...
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
// Make sure your segue name in storyboard is the same as this line
if ([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:@"YOUR_SEGUE_NAME_HERE"])
{
// Get reference to the destination view controller
YourViewController *vc = [segue destinationViewController];
// Pass any objects to the view controller here, like...
[vc setMyObjectHere:object];
}
}
REVISION: You can also use performSegueWithIdentifier:sender:
method to activate the transition to a new view based on a selection or button press.
For instance, consider I had two view controllers. The first contains three buttons and the second needs to know which of those buttons has been pressed before the transition. You could wire the buttons up to an IBAction
in your code which uses performSegueWithIdentifier:
method, like this...
// When any of my buttons are pressed, push the next view
- (IBAction)buttonPressed:(id)sender
{
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"MySegue" sender:sender];
}
// This will get called too before the view appears
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
if ([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:@"MySegue"]) {
// Get destination view
SecondView *vc = [segue destinationViewController];
// Get button tag number (or do whatever you need to do here, based on your object
NSInteger tagIndex = [(UIButton *)sender tag];
// Pass the information to your destination view
[vc setSelectedButton:tagIndex];
}
}
EDIT: The demo application I originally attached is now six years old, so I've removed it to avoid any confusion.
Sometimes it is helpful to avoid creating a compile-time dependency between two view controllers. Here's how you can do it without caring about the type of the destination view controller:
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
if ([segue.destinationViewController respondsToSelector:@selector(setMyData:)]) {
[segue.destinationViewController performSelector:@selector(setMyData:)
withObject:myData];
}
}
So as long as your destination view controller declares a public property, e.g.:
@property (nonatomic, strong) MyData *myData;
you can set this property in the previous view controller as I described above.
Just use this function.
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
let index = CategorytableView.indexPathForSelectedRow
let indexNumber = index?.row
let VC = segue.destination as! DestinationViewController
VC.value = self.data
}
