I'm trying to share data between various viewControllers, I'm using a property declared in the appDelegate. I set the property in my first viewController and when I print out the contents, everything looks fine, but after I call a custom class method, the property gets set to some random value that seems to change every time I run the app. See code below: appDelegate .h <pre><code>NSDate *lastUpdated; @property (nonatomic, retain) NSDate *lastUpdated; </code></pre> viewController .m <pre><code>AppDelegateClassName *appDelegate = (AppDelegateClassName *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate]; [appDelegate setLastUpdated:[NSDate date]]; </code></pre> After I set the property, I then call the following custom class method with a reference to the viewController as a parameter: viewController .m <pre><code>ForceData *forceData = [[ForceData alloc] init]; [forceData queryServiceWithParent:self]; </code></pre> If I try and display the contents of the appDelegate property within my custom class, it returns a random value. Once the custom class returns to the viewController, the appDelegate property stays as the random value. I can't see what's going wrong. Can anyone help? Thanks. UPDATE Here is the code within the queryServiceWithParent method: <pre><code>- (void)queryServiceWithParent:(UIViewController *)controller { viewController = (ForcesTableViewController *)controller; responseData = [[NSMutableData data] retain]; NSString *url = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://example.com"]; theURL = [[NSURL URLWithString:url] retain]; NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:theURL]; [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self]; } </code></pre> I'm still having this problem so any help is much appreciated. UPDATE: I've spent some more time looking at this and I can display the contents of lastUpdated anywhere within the queryServiceWithParent (just above) and it displays fine. But if I display the same property in the connectionDidFinishLoading, it's reset. Very stuck with this one!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
