Notification not being recognised

Question

I am trying to post a notification without much success! I can do it ok for the keyboard without issue but now am trying a custom one as follows:

In my rootview I have this

.h

-(void) allowEdits:(NSNotification *)notification;

.m

//this section is run in method to present the passcode entry form


[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:@selector(allowEdits:) name: @"PasscodeOK" object:nil];

PasscodeEntryViewController *vc = [[PasscodeEntryViewController alloc]
init];

[self presentModalViewController: vc animated:YES];

[vc release];


// and this is the response to the notification

-(void) allowEdits:(NSNotification *)notification {

    NSLog(@"notification fired");
}


// in the vc instance I have this to notify passcode was ok

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter]
postNotificationName:@"PasscodeOK" object:nil];

[self dismissView];

But the allowEdits never gets called?

Answer 1

Could you try posting your notification with:

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"PasscodeOK" object:self];

As sender take the vc instance (self) instead of nil. Maybe that's solving your problem.
