iphone上的applicationDidBecomeActive时如何从活动实例中设置NSTimer的目标

Question

I have an NSTimer that I created in the appDelegate to handle the pause when the app locks or is put in the background, but the timers selector is in another viewController, when the user is in that viewController and then hits the home button the app closes and moves to the background, but when the app is tapped I need to set the timer again, in the applicationDidBecomeActive, but am not sure how I access the active viewController from the app delegate, I have tried setting the timer in the viewController's viewDidAppear but it is not fired, if anyone has some clues as how to handle this I would be very grateful.

Answer 1

Create a variable to store viewController in the app delegate...

Or if you are using a UINavigationController you can use [navigationController topViewController]

Answer 2

Well it turns out that this is pretty easy, I just wasn't thinking it through, maybe a bit too tired, anyway the answer is close to what David mentioned, the key is to loop through the viewControllers in the navigation controller to get the proper viewController

  for (UIViewController *vc in [self.navigationController viewControllers]) {
    if ([vc isKindOfClass:[CustomViewController class]]) {
      CustomViewController *fvc = (CustomViewController *)vc;
      self.sessionTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.0 target:fvc selector:@selector(saveTimesAndUpdateButtonDisplay) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];

      [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] addTimer:sessionTimer forMode:NSRunLoopCommonModes]; 
    }
  }
