DELEGATES IN SWIFT 2
I am explaining with example of Delegate with two viewControllers.In this case, SecondVC Object is sending data back to first View Controller.
Class with Protocol Declaration
protocol getDataDelegate {
func getDataFromAnotherVC(temp: String)
}
import UIKit
class SecondVC: UIViewController {
var delegateCustom : getDataDelegate?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
@IBAction func backToMainVC(sender: AnyObject) {
//calling method defined in first View Controller with Object
self.delegateCustom?.getDataFromAnotherVC(temp: "I am sending data from second controller to first view controller.Its my first delegate example. I am done with custom delegates.")
self.navigationController?.popViewControllerAnimated(true)
}
}
In First ViewController Protocol conforming is done here:
class ViewController: UIViewController, getDataDelegate
Protocol method definition in First View Controller(ViewController)
func getDataFromAnotherVC(temp : String)
{
// dataString from SecondVC
lblForData.text = dataString
}
During push the SecondVC from First View Controller (ViewController)
let objectPush = SecondVC()
objectPush.delegateCustom = self
self.navigationController.pushViewController(objectPush, animated: true)
