iPhone-导航控制器不起作用

Question

I'm going mad using navigation controllers on the iPhone. I have an app, with a main xib (the one with the window) inside wich I have put a NavigationController, inside wich I have a viewController. Everything is connected and the ViewController is defined with the correct inherited class name.

In the didFinishLaunchingWithOptions, i have :

[self.window addSubview:navigationController.view];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];

In the .h I have :

@interface MainAppDelegate : NSObject <UIApplicationDelegate> {
    IBOutlet UIWindow *window;
    IBOutlet UINavigationController* navigationController;
}

@property (nonatomic, retain) UIWindow *window;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UINavigationController* navigationController;

@end

Then in the First ViewController I have a button connected to this method :

- (IBAction) definePreferences:(id)sender {
    PreferencesController *nextWindow = [[[PreferencesController alloc] initWithNibName:@"Preferences" bundle:nil] autorelease];        
    UINavigationController* navController = [[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:nextWindow] autorelease];
    [self.navigationController presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
}

all items in the main xib seems to be connected... and retained by the properties. The AppDelegate with its window and navigationController... the Window rootviewcontroller with the same navigationController... and the file owner with the app delegate...

Everything runs fine, but the preferences window never appears...

Can you see why ?

If needed, I must say that this first view controller makes the camera interface appear and put an overlay over it. The button is onto this overlay. The imagePicker is show like this in viewDidAppear :

UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
    [picker release];

EDIT : In viewDidAppear, self.navigationController is ok at the start and end of method. In definePreferences, self.navigationController is nil. Nothing is called beetween those two calls. Nothing

EDIT : The problem may come from the way I init the viewController on which the button is. Here is the method called from the firstView called by the Navigation Controller.

- (void) viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {

    UIImagePickerController* picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];

    // Set the image picker source:
    picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;

    picker.showsCameraControls = NO;
    picker.navigationBarHidden = YES;
    picker.wantsFullScreenLayout = YES;

    // Insert the overlay
    OverlayViewController* overlayController = [[OverlayViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"Overlay" bundle:nil];
    picker.cameraOverlayView = overlayController.view;

    // Show the picker:
    [self presentModalViewController:picker animated:NO];
    [picker release];

    [super viewDidAppear:YES];
}

But... how should I do ?

Answer 1

First, never call an IBAction setPreferences: . That violates KVC, and can eventually cause all kinds of bizarre behaviors. setX: is a reserved name for the setter of the property named x .

You should not be creating a nav controller in this method (ie navController ). You should be using the one you created in the NIB ( self.navigationController ). Check if that is nil. If it is, then you either didn't set up a navigation controller in the NIB, or you didn't wire it to this view controller.

You should also verify that nextWindow is non-nil.

I've finaly solved the problem. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5317968/iphone-camera-overlay-going-down-after-a-modal-view-transition

I have some hair less... :-)
