copied!<p>I have the second view controller presenting itself as modal in this example:</p> <p>In the second view controllers h file:</p> <pre><code>@protocol SecondViewControllerDelegate <NSObject> - (void)addItemViewController:(id)controller didFinishEnteringItem:(NSString *)item; @end @interface SecondPageViewController : UIViewController <UITextViewDelegate> { NSString *previouslyTypedInformation; } @property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextView *textView; @property (nonatomic) NSString *previouslyTypedInformation; @property (nonatomic, weak) id <SecondViewControllerDelegate> delegate; </code></pre> <p>In the second view controllers m file make sure to synthesize properties and add then add this:</p> <pre><code>- (IBAction)done:(id)sender { NSString *itemToPassBack = self.textView.text; NSLog(@"returning: %@",itemToPassBack); [self.delegate addItemViewController:self didFinishEnteringItem:itemToPassBack]; //dismiss modal view controller here } </code></pre> <p>Then in the first view controllers h file set it as delegate:</p> <pre><code> @interface FirstPageViewController: UIViewController <SecondViewControllerDelegate> @property (nonatomic) NSString *returnedItem; </code></pre> <p>Then in the first view controller's m file synthesize and add the method:</p> <pre><code>- (void)addItemViewController:(SecondPageViewController *)controller didFinishEnteringItem: (NSString *)item { //using delegate method, get data back from second page view controller and set it to property declared in here NSLog(@"This was returned from secondPageViewController: %@",item); self.returnedItem=item; //add item to array here and call reload } </code></pre> <p>Now you have the text of what was returned! You can add the string to your array in the first view controller's viewDidLoad and call </p> <pre><code>[self.tableView reloadData]; </code></pre> <p>and it should work.</p>
