iPhone go from View to TableView

Answer 1

In your login IBAction, send the LoginViewController the pushViewController: animated: message. That message and its counter-part, popViewControllerAnimated: is available in the UINavigationController class.

Unfortunately, your LoginViewController isn't a UINavigationController.

You can fix that particular error by changing it to:

[self.navigationController pushViewController:self.dataController animated:YES];

That assumes that LoginViewController is being hosted by a UINavigationController.

Answer 2

Giao is right. you need to tell a navigationController to push the view, not a viewController subclass. the navigationController should be handling all your view controllers that you want for the hierarchically structured part of your application. your navigationController should use its initWithRootViewController: method first to load your logincontroller and show its view. then when you want to display the next view, you send the navigtionController the pushViewController:animated: message with the next viewController who's view you want to display.

Answer 3

Another approach would be to create your first view as the Navigation Controller holding the UITableView and then on viewWillAppear, you check to see if the user has logged in. If they are not yet logged in, present the LoginViewController you create as modal. The benefit of using the modal is the root view will be your tableview. If your app has a tabbar and your first navigation controller view is the loginview controller, each time you hit the tab bar item, your login view will display.

Hope this helps.
