Swift Delegate method never getting called

I have declared my protocol like below in the modal

protocol MapViewControllerDelegate : class {
    //func mapViewLocationSelected(sender:AnyObject, location:CLLocation, address:String)
    func didSelectMap(sender:AnyObject)
}

Also I've declared the delegate as below

weak var delegate : MapViewControllerDelegate?

Then I dismiss the screen and invoke delegate method as below

self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
delegate?.didSelectMap(self)

In the viewcontroller which invoked the model I have following things

Declared the Modal VC as below

var mvController : MapViewController = MapViewController()

Then I set the delegate as below under viewDidLoad

mvController.delegate = self

Then I implemented the delegate methods

func didSelectMap(sender: AnyObject) {
    println("Came here")
}

But I never came to ddidSelectMap method. I've done this before and it worked, I couldn't figure out what went wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

parent viewcontroller pastebin.com/7z5vg6yJ

model viewcontroller pastebin.com/DwAa6erQ

Could it be a problem caused due to MapKit I'm using?

Thanks in advance.

My suggestion would be to assign the delegate in the prepareForSegue method. Also make sure to use the segue.destinationViewController to get the appropriate VC.

Something like below would do I assume.

override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: AnyObject?) {
        if segue.identifier == "showMapviewSegue"{
            mapVController = segue.destinationViewController as! MapViewController
            mapVController.delegate = self
        }
}

Try this, it should work.

First call delegate and then dismiss the controller. That may solve your problem 

 delegate?.didSelectMap(self)
 self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
