I have tried to find a similar question but I was unable to do so. I have a singleton that is used to gather information through out my app. Once of the values is obtained within the following method.
-(NSString *)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveData:(NSData *)data-(NSString *)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveData:(NSData *)data
In this method I get the response from th webservice that I am trying to connect to. Everything is good. However any attempt to save the variable value to my singleton fails. Within this method no problem. When I try to get to the next view and reference my singleton, it is as if the value never gets saved.
Here is a skeleton of my code.
NBXJSONResponse *jsonResponse = [NBXJSONResponse sharedHostedResponseSingleton];
[jsonResponse setHostedURL:_hostedURL];
Basically the goal here is to have the hosted payment page appear in the next view. The flow flow for that works. I just need to pass the URI link so that payment can be made.
I know that I can return a value from this delegate method, but since I never explicitly call this method, so I am unsure where it is being called. Probably the reason why my values are not being saved in the singleton class.
EDIT:
Right now I have one view which does all of the action.

Please let me know of your thoughts. I can post more details if needed. Thanks in advance for your help!!!
