如何将数据从父视图控制器传递到子视图控制器？

Question

How can I passing data from parent view controller to child view controller?

I tried doing this with delegates. but I don't think it's an option?

Answer 1

Option 1

If you're passing from a parent to a child view controller, then just set the property of your childViewController from the parent.

customChildViewController.someRandomProperty = @"some random value";
[self presentViewController:customChildViewController animated:YES completion:nil];

Option 2

Or, you can set up a delegate

Step 1: set up protocol above interface in ChildViewController.h file

@protocol ChildViewControllerDelegate

- (NSDictionary *) giveMeData;

@end

@interface  .....

Step 2: create delegate property in ChildViewController.h interface

@property (strong, nonatomic) id<ChildViewControllerDelegate>delegate

Step 3: declare delegate protocol in ParentViewController.h

@interface ParentViewController : UIViewController <ChildViewControllerDelegate>

Step 4: in ParentViewController.m add this method:

- (NSDictionary *) giveMeData {
    NSMutableDictionary * dataToReturn = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];
    dataToReturn[@"some"] = @"random";
    dataToReturn[@"data"] = @"here";
    return dataToReturn;
}

Step 5: before launching childViewController declare delegate property.

childViewController.delegate = self;
[self presentViewController:childViewController animated:YES completion:nil];

Step 6: in child view controller whenever you want data add this

NSMutableDictionary * dataFromParent = [self.delegate giveMeData];

The parentVC will run 'giveMeData' and return a NSMutableDictionary (adjust for whatever data you want)

Answer 2

您可以通过以下方式访问子视图控制器：

NSArray *children = self.childViewControllers;
