Adding Login View to an App using Tab Bar Controller

Question

I've created a small iphone app that contains a tab bar controller that has been created on the MainWindow.xib. The App Delegate contains the root controller outlet. I'm wondering how I can work in a login screen that will direct the user to my view controller containing the tab bars.

Current Solution: On didFinishLaunchingWithOptions add subview "RootController" which loads my MainWindow.xib view with tab bars. Then call "presentModalViewController" to present the LoginViewController as a modal. On the login view controller, the login button click calls the AppDelegate to dismiss the modal.

Does anyone know of a better solution? Possibly a solution that doesn't load the page with tabs until after the user has logged into the app.

Thanks!

Answer 1

• Make a separate View Controller (lets say A)
• in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions check if user is logged in .. if not show A..
• implement delegation and pass back login result to the app delegate...and then load the tab bar View
