Using container view as a Dashboard

Question

i have used container view on the right side and i used another view controller as a child view controller to this container view. i want to change the data appearing in that container view. FYI i m loading the EKEventViewController in that container view. So obviously the tableview contains the events from the calendar. I've seen many tutorials but i m unable to change the content in the container view. Any help is appreciated.

here is some of the code i used.

in contentVC since i use tableview, i wrote the code in didSelectRowAtIndexPath: method

[self.view addSubView:containerView]; [self addChildController:eventViewController]; //which is the childcontroller of containerview

and in eventViewController class viewDidLoad: method

i assigned EKEventViewController Object as a childcontroller of the container view object since i want the UI of EKEventViewController in the containerview.

Simply EKEventViewController (Childcontroller of) eventViewController (childcontroller of) ContainerView. Any help is appreciated

Your

viewDidLoad:

method is not the one to call. You should be adapting the:

viewWillAppear:

method instead.

The viewWillAppear occurs after the viewDidLoad is already finished. Try adding the correct view there.
