I have my UIPopoverController with self as a delegate: I receive calls when I tap outside the popover controller, but when I tap inside I want to dismiss too, so I use -dismissPopoverAnimated: but delegate is not called in this case. Is this normal? Is this a bug or I am doing something wrong?

newDocPopoverController = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:vc];
[newDocPopoverController setPopoverContentSize:CGSizeMake(240, 44*4)];
[newDocPopoverController presentPopoverFromBarButtonItem:sender 
                permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny
                                                        animated:YES];
[newDocPopoverController setDelegate:self];

UPDATE:

Oh, no matter the origin of the problem. (Whether is a bug or this is the normal behavior, because I am 99.9999% my code is correct) I realized that calling the delegate manually solves the problem.

When the contentViewController's view is touched I will call parent UIPopoverController's delegate a call.

if ([parentPopoverController.delegate popoverControllerShouldDismissPopover:parentPopoverController]){
    [parentPopoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
    [parentPopoverController.delegate popoverControllerDidDismissPopover:parentPopoverController];
}r];
+1  A: 

That's normal, expected behavior.

Quoting the Apple docs on popoverControllerDidDismissPopover::

The popover controller does not call this method in response to programmatic calls to the dismissPopoverAnimated: method. If you dismiss the popover programmatically, you should perform any cleanup actions immediately after calling the dismissPopoverAnimated: method.

Thanks!, I c. I think that info should also appear in UIPopoverController class reference also, and not only in its delegate protocol reference. ;)
