DismissmodalViewController donot remove the modal View

I have been figuring out this since yesterday but have not got that correct yet. I have added the modalviewcontroller for my loading view controller on top of my tab bar controller and it works fine. Added the code in app Delegate:

 - (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:  (NSDictionary *)launchOptions { 
   [navController.navigationBar setTintColor:[UIColor blackColor]]; 
   [window addSubview:rootController.view]; 
   [window makeKeyAndVisible];
   LoadingViewController *lvc = [[LoadingViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"LoadingView" bundle:nil]; 
    // Delegate added here
   lvc.loadingDelegate = self;
   [rootController presentModalViewController:lvc animated:YES]; 
   [self URL]; 
   [lvc release]; 
   return TRUE; 
}

Now I do my parsing and when its done I call the following code in different view name XMLParsingView.m where the parsing got over.

- (void)handleLoadedApps
 {
 LoadingViewController *loading = [[[LoadingViewController alloc] init] autorelease];
 //delegating to let the load view controller know to dimiss itself by defining  disappear method in protocol
 [loading.loadingDelegate disappear];
 }

and in loading view controller I have method which calls dismissModalViewControlAnimated:

 -(void)disappear{
[activity stopAnimating];
[activity removeFromSuperview];
[self removeFromSuperview];
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

But for some reason it will never remove the view and not load it back to my tab bar controller. Really need help here if any one have come across such issues.

In your code you seem to create, without a nib, a new LoadingViewController and immediately go and dismiss it. In your app delegate you create your first loadingViewController with a nib, present it modally on rootController and then release it. Since you want to dismiss it outside your app delegate you have

3 choices, (hardest to fastest and most sane)

a) Key-Value-Observing on a property of XMLParsingView from LoadingViewController to remove itself when the task finishes.

b) Use delegation to inform the LoadingViewController when the task finishes to dismiss itself.

c) Fetch your rootController from your [[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate], which means you must expose rootController as a property or through a method, and make rootController dismiss your modal.

You need to call dismissModalViewControllerAnimated on the rootViewController, not the loading view controller.
