Putting stuff in my view controller's viewDidUnload doesn't have any effect

There's a UIViewController method -(void)viewDidUnload. I tried putting NSLog("unloaded"); in there to see when the view is unloaded, but nothing was printed to the console.

Where do I put my code, so that before a view unloads I can perform an action?

Are you using storyboard or not?

Have you tried any of this methods 

 -(void) viewWillUnload{}

or 

-(void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated{}

If you are using storyboards the one that will that usually performs is viewWillDisappear.

If you read the viewDidUnload documentation, you see that it's related to low memory conditions and may be called to help with that. There is also a viewWillUnload that get's called before the view is released. It's also related to low memory.

If you're only interested in when the view is no longer seen, there are will/did disappear methods.
