setting a tab bar controller view controller programmatically

Is there a way to set the view controller on the tab bar controller programmatically? Lets say I want it to show the second's tab view controller programmatically, is there a way to do that?

This is useful if I logout from my app, which is done from my third tab, when the user logins it should start from the 1st tab again. When I logout I am just showing a present modal view controller on top of what the previous view is, so I somehow needs to reset it again to the first tab bar without re-initializing it all over again.

The issue is now how do I do this?

Have a look at the reference on UITabBarController. Work with selectedIndex and selectedViewController.

Hi ye you can do this

You might have tabbarcontroller object in appDelegate.

So on logout button

make object on your appDelegateClass and do this:-

appDelegate.tabBarController.selectedIndex=0;

From Apple's documentation it looks to me like you could just call the following two functions:

    [myTabBarController setSelectedIndex:0];
    [myTabBarController setSelectedViewController:[myTabBarController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:0]];
