I have a viewController that is presented modally, and when the cancel leftBarButtonItem is pressed I want a certain property to be set to nil before the UITextFieldDelegate method textFieldShouldEndEditing gets called.

I was able to do this when I was using unwindSegue from storyboard, using prepareForSegue, but when I set the target-actionfor the leftBarButtonItem programmatically, textFieldShouldEndEditing gets called before the action method gets called for the leftBarButtonItem. Does anyone know how to call a method before textFieldShouldEndEditing gets called? Thanks!

Use NSNotificationCenter or Delegates. – DipakSonara May 12 '14 at 11:07
Did you try calling method from viewWillDisappear of the view controller? – Adithya May 12 '14 at 11:30
`viewWillDisappear` is called much later than textFieldShouldEndEditing. – funct7 May 12 '14 at 13:49
