tabbar is not displaying in secondview controller

Question

I am new in iOS world.I am creating one tab-bar sample app.

There is one button in first view-controller when i click this button it goes to to second view-controller.In second view-controller i use one gridview and i left 100 space at bottom.

now in second view-controller i have to add one tab bar so i go to Editor->Embedin->Tabbar controller and run application but i do not see tab bar here.I also try to use tab bar controller on object library but same issue i found.

Why tab bar is not displaying in second view-controller.Any suggestion ?

button click event :-

SecondVC *vc=[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"SecondVC"];

[self.navigationController pushViewController:vc animated:YES];

Thanks .

Answer 1

If you have the SecondVC embedded in a TabBarVC you need to present the TBVC instead of the SecondVC in order for the Tab Bar to actually appear.

So instead of doing:

SecondVC *vc=[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"SecondVC"];

[self.navigationController pushViewController:vc animated:YES];

you need to do:

TabBarVC *vc=[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"TabBarVC"];

[self.navigationController pushViewController:vc animated:YES];

This will add to the navigation stack the Tab Bar View Controller.

This might be the implementation you are looking for

Answer 2

Button to viewcontroller SecondVC set segue identifer name as Pass

- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{if ([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:@"Pass"])
{
SecondVC* vc = [[SecondVC alloc] init];

vc = (SecondVC ) [[(UINavigationController )[[self.tabBarController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0] viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0];

}
}
