I have an iPad app (XCode 4.6, ios 6.2, ARC and Storyboards). I need to get existing instance of the UITabBarController. This is my code, but it's obviously wrong. How do I correct it?
UITabBarController *tabBarController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"tabBarController"];
[tabBarController setSelectedIndex:0];
You are instantiating a new UITabBarController
instance as the method name suggests.
If you are in the context of a UIViewController
within the UITabBarController
, just use
self.tabBarController
If the context is not in UITabBarController
, self.tabBarController
return nil.
