    text
    copied!<p>I'm making an app that behaves something like the default Messages.app in iPhone where a user composes a text message in a <code>UITextField</code> and upon tapping the Send button, the value of the <code>UITextField</code> in <code>ComposeViewController</code> will be transferred to the table cell's <code>UILabel</code> in a custom cell in <code>MasterViewController</code> and also to the <code>DetailViewController</code> where another <code>UILabel</code> will get the text value from the <code>UITextField</code>. The <code>DetailViewController</code> is the <code>ViewController</code> loaded when the user taps the cells from the <code>UITableViewCells</code>.</p> <p>I actually read related articles below but it doesn't work on my end.</p> <ul> <li>How to send the text from textfield to another class?</li> <li>How to see text from one text field in another text field?</li> <li>How to send text field value to another class</li> </ul> <p>Can you please guide me on how to properly implement this? I know it's easy. I just don't know why it's not working. ComposeVC is a <code>ModalViewController</code> while DetailVC is the view that loads when the user taps the cell in the MasterVC's table.</p> <p>Thanks a lot!</p> <p>Below is my code for ComposeVC.h:</p> <pre><code> UITextField *messageTextField; @property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITextField *messageTextField; - (IBAction)buttonPressed:(id)sender; </code></pre> <p>for ComposeVC.m</p> <pre><code> synthesize messageTextField; -(IBAction)buttonPressed:(id)sender { DetailVC *detailVC = [[DetailVC alloc] init]; detailVC.messageText = messageTextField.text; } </code></pre> <p>for DetailVC.h</p> <pre><code> NSString *messageText; @property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *messageText; </code></pre> <p>for DetailVC.m</p> <pre><code> @synthesize messageText; - (void)viewLoad { testLabel.text = messageText; } </code></pre> <p>testLabel is the UILabel inside my DetailVC.</p>
