Dissmiss uiview using PerformeSelectorOnMainThread

have a publish option in my app, where the user fills the information and it's send to my webservice.

I have the "form" on a modal view. And a function that I use to close it, when the button Cancel is touched.

When the publish button is touched, I start a thread, while the ws is in use.

I want to call my Cancel function when the ws operation is over.

Publish button:

 self.myThread = [[NSThread alloc]initWithTarget:self selector:@selector(startThread) object:nil];
            [self.myThread start];

startThread:

    [self.ws publicar:self.registro];
    [self.myThread performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(Cancelar) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:NO];
    [self.myThread cancel];

Cancelar:

-(IBAction)Cancelar{

    [SingletonTelasAdicionar resetar];
    [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}

When I touch the publish button I get this:

The crash looks straight-forward: self.myThread is an NSThread. It doesn't implement Cancelar. The thing that does implement it is self. Try - 

[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(Cancelar) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:NO];

The design around it might also require some attention. If a view controller presents the form, how about doing this:

// on the vc that presents the 'form'
- (IBAction)submitAction:(id)sender {

    NSMutableURLRequest *request = // ... build a request to post your data
    [NSURLConnection sendAsynchronousRequest:request queue:[NSOperationQueue mainQueue] completionHandler:^(NSURLResponse *response, NSData *data, NSError *error) {

        if (!error) {
            [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{}];
        }
    }];
}

This runs the request off the main thread. When it's complete it runs the completion block on the main thread. There you dismiss the view controller that presented the form. Cancel would look like this:

- (IBAction)cancelAction:(id)sender {
    [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{}];
}

You need the proper arguments for this kind of function.

Yours should be:

-(IBAction)Cancelar:(id)sender {
    [SingletonTelasAdicionar resetar];
    [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}

Also, you should change your selector call to:

[self.myThread performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(Cancelar:) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:NO];
