UIPopoverController & navigate to UIViewController?

Question

I am developing app for iPad. I am able to display UIPopoverController with tableView with some list in VIEW1.

I want to navigate from VIEW1 to VIEW2 when user select a row from table.

In other words,

VIEW1 contains a button1.
When user presses button1, then Popover displayed on VIEW1.
In popover, there is a table with some rows. (VIEW1)
When user select a row then it should call VIEW2 i.e navigate from VIEW1 to VIEW2.

Thanks for any help.

VIEW1 is a bit confusing to me ... It has a button and then it's in the popover as a table view?? — Kai Huppmann, Aug 06 '12 at 09:12
Sounds like just using a `UITableViewController` as `contentViewController` in `UIPopoverController`... What did you try, what doesn't work? — Kai Huppmann, Aug 06 '12 at 09:17
do you want to open the new view on tableview rowclick on popover? — Purva, Aug 06 '12 at 09:17
2nd solution: U must had set view to popviewcontroller. u had set View1, U should change it to view2 when user taps on cell of a table. — Nikhil Bansal, Aug 06 '12 at 09:22

In tableview delegate method didSelectRowAtIndexPath you can call method as follows:

1.While initializing popover controller define target and selector as follows: [theController setTarget:self andSelector:@selector(yourMethod:)];

2.and In view controller which contains tableview, you can define setTarget method as follows:

-(void)setTarget:(id)inTarget andSelector:(SEL)inSelector {
    mTarget = inTarget;
    m_Selector = inSelector;
}

where mTarget is of id type and mSelector is selector.

3.Then didSelectRowAtIndexPath you can call yourMethod as follows:

if ([m_Target respondsToSelector:m_Selector]) {
        [m_Target performSelector:m_Selector withObject:nil];
    }

And if table view is in same view then you can call yourMethod in didSelectRowAtIndexPath.

In the table views controller file you'll want to use the didSelectRowAtIndexPath method to present view2, e.g:

[self presentViewController:view2controller animated:YES completion:nil];

I found the answer. Just add UITableViewController to UIPopOverController to navigate from VIEW1 to VIEW2.

Thanks for your efforts. Below is the code.

        tableViewController = [[UITableViewController alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];
        tableViewController.tableView = tblView;
        tableViewController.tableView.delegate = self;
        tableViewController.tableView.dataSource = self;
        UIPopoverController *popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:tableViewController];
        self.popoverController = popover;
        popoverController.delegate = self;

        [popoverController setPopoverContentSize:CGSizeMake(442.0f, 527.0f)];
        [popoverController presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(bkBtn.frame.origin.x+bkBtn.frame.size.width/2, bkBtn.frame.origin.y, 442.0f, 527.0f) inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionDown animated:YES];

        [tableViewController.tableView reloadData];

 - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView 
         cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
VIEW2 *view2=[[VIEW2 alloc]initWithName:@"VIEW2" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:view2 animated:YES];
[view2 release];
}
just try it.This will help you.
