I have a view controller called vc0 which is presented like this:
[self presentViewController: vc1 animated: YES completion: nil];
And in vc1 I have a button to present another view controller:
[self presentViewController: vc2 animated: YES completion: nil];
Then in vc2, I have a button to dismiss the view controller:
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion: ^{
// over here I call one method in vc1
}
And as expected it returns back to vc1.. however there is a button in vc1 to go back to vc0 by dismissing the view controller like this:
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
But for some reason it doesn't work, the view controller does not get dismissed back to vc0. When I first present vc1, I can press the button to dismiss the view controller and it works. But when I press the button to open vc2, and when I dismiss vc2 back to vc1, and THEN I press the button to dismiss the view controller, that is when it doesn't work.
Sorry if the question is a bit unclear, it is a bit hard to phrase what I am trying to say.
Also one more thing:
I tried replacing dismissViewControllerAnimated: in vc1 to manually present vc0, but then I get a log in the console saying that I am trying to present a vc0 but vc1's view is not in the window hierarchy. What does this mean?
Thanks for help!
UPDATE:
IN THIS CASE VC0 IS MenuMileIndexViewController - VC1 IS FlightViewController - VC2 IS BookmarksTableViewController
Here is code involved:
MenuMileIndexViewController:
- (IBAction)goToOriginPage {
FlightRecorder *origin = [[FlightRecorder alloc] init];
[self presentViewController:origin animated:YES completion:nil];
}
Flight Recorder:
- (void)searchBarBookmarkButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar {
[self bringUpBookmarkkTable];
}
- (void) bringUpBookmarkkTable {
BookmarkTableViewController *bookmarkTVC = [[BookmarkTableViewController alloc] init];
[bookmarkTVC setModalTransitionStyle: UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal];
[self presentViewController:bookmarkTVC animated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (IBAction)cancel {
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (void)endBookmarkProcessWithBookmarkCollection: (NSDictionary *)dict {
presetBookmarkContext = [dict mutableCopy];
bookmarkMode = YES;
NSString *compiledText = nil;
NSNumber *number1 = [NSNumber numberWithInt: 1];
if ([dict objectForKey: @"bookmarkTag"] == number1) {
compiledText = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"%@ to %@", [dict objectForKey: @"origin"], [dict objectForKey: @"destination"]];
}
else {
compiledText = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"%@ to %@", [dict objectForKey: @"destination"], [dict objectForKey: @"origin"]];
}
compiledText = [compiledText stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"Origin: " withString:@""];
compiledText = [compiledText stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"Destination: " withString:@""];
flightContext = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: [dict objectForKey: @"miles"], @"miles", compiledText, @"location", [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] objectForKey: @"tempD"], @"date", nil];
NSString *string = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"\nMiles: %.2f\nFlight: %@\nDate: %@", [[dict objectForKey: @"miles"] floatValue], compiledText, [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] objectForKey:@"tempD"]];
UIAlertView *bvkBookmarkAlertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Confirmation" message:string delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"Cancel" otherButtonTitles:@"Add", nil];
[bvkBookmarkAlertView show];
}
- (void)alertView:(UIAlertView *)alertView didDismissWithButtonIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex {
if (buttonIndex == 1) {
[self cancel]; // Even though cancel is an IBAction, IBAction is the same thing as void so it is callable
}
}
- (void)alertView:(UIAlertView *)alertView clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex {
if (buttonIndex == 1) {
[TheMileIndexViewController addDesiredMilesToIndex: [[flightContext objectForKey: @"miles"] doubleValue]];
[TravelLogViewController addFlight: flightContext];
if (!bookmarkMode) {
if ([checkbox isSelected]) {
[BookmarkHandler uploadBookmark: bookmarkFlightContext];
}
}
}
if (buttonIndex == 0) {
if ([alertView.title isEqualToString: @"Confirmation"]) {
bookmarkMode = NO;
}
}
}
BookmarksTableViewController:
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
[tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated: YES];
NSDictionary *dict = [[BookmarkHandler bookmarkCollection] objectAtIndex: indexPath.row];
fl = [[FlightRecorder alloc] init];
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
[fl endBookmarkProcessWithBookmarkCollection: dict];
}];
}
NOW, I have created a screen recording of the app in simulator showing what is the problem. I can email that to you for reference. So I can email that to you.
