How to reset a uinavigationview to display the root controller when user clicks back to it in a tab bar app

How to reset a uinavigationview to display the root controller when user clicks back to it in a tab bar app

Hey,

Just wondering how I would do this. I have the navcontroller in my delegate along with the tabbar controller and Any time the user clicks to another tab I want the rootview on the navigation controller to be shown if and when they click back the the tab that contains the uinavcontroller.

Does this make sense?

place the code in appdelegate.m

if ([viewController isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]]) {
    UINavigationController *nav = (UINavigationController *)viewController;
    [nav popToRootViewControllerAnimated:NO];
}

When using the UITabBar delegate method, you must delay the popToRootViewControllerAnimated call. 

-(void)tabBar:(UITabBar *)tabBar didSelectItem:(UITabBarItem *)item
{
if ([self.selectedViewController isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]]) {
    UINavigationController *view=(UINavigationController *)self.selectedViewController;
    [view performSelector:@selector(popToRootViewControllerAnimated:) withObject:nil    afterDelay:.5];
}
}

[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];

Or NO if you don't want it to animate.

This way all the views that were cached are still there, i.e. you don't "remove/release" all the views above the root view, unless the navigationController deems it necessary.

I hope this was what You were looking for..
