ios - Loading NSURLRequest on webView from a different class. -

i created view controller webview in storyboard called googlesearchcontroller. property webview was, of course, declared in googlesearchcontroller.

i attempting access synthesized webview property, *googlewebview, within mapviewcontroller, can append point annotations google search. output here correct. i'm getting appended , desired url, i'm failing load it. @ end of leftbuttonannotationpressed method, notice try call loadrequest on self.classobj.googlewebview. not going should. first time i've tried use @synthesize, , i'm open suggestions.

my question comes in 2 parts. a: using @synthesize intended? , b: if proper use, why won't webview load request?

googlesearchcontroller.h

 @interface googlesearchcontroller : uiviewcontroller <uiwebviewdelegate>   @property (strong, nonatomic) iboutlet uiwebview *googlewebview;   @end 

googlesearchcontroller.m

@synthesize googlewebview;  - (void)viewdidload {     [super viewdidload];      self.googlewebview = [[uiwebview alloc] init];     self.googlewebview.delegate = self; } 

mapviewcontroller.m

@property (nonatomic, strong) googlesearchcontroller *classobj;  -(void)leftbuttonannotationpressed:(uibutton *)sender { [self performseguewithidentifier:@"googlesearch" sender:nil]; self.classobj = [[googlesearchcontroller alloc] init]; <--------  mkpointannotation *annotation = [self.mapview.selectedannotations objectatindex:([self.mapview.selectedannotations count]) -1]; nsstring *appendstring = annotation.title; nsstring *googlestring = @"http://www.google.com/search?q="; nsstring *appendedurlstring = [googlestring stringbyappendingstring:appendstring];  if ([appendedurlstring containsstring:@" "]) {     appendedurlstring = [appendedurlstring stringbyreplacingoccurrencesofstring:@" " withstring:@"+"];      nsurl *url = [nsurl urlwithstring:appendedurlstring];     nsurlrequest *request = [nsurlrequest requestwithurl:url];     [self.classobj.googlewebview loadrequest:request];<------      nslog(@"appended string: %@", request);  } 

@sythesize not required/mandatory anymore. without @synthesize ios/xcode automatically create instance variable _[propertyname]

if uiwebview created in ib, need not initialize programatically. make sure webview , viewcontroller iboutlet property connected. should suffice.

the important reason can think request not loading because loading url in different instance 1 displayed in googlesearchviewcontroller

you doing this

[self performseguewithidentifier:@"googlesearch" sender:nil]; self.classobj = [[googlesearchcontroller alloc] init]; <-------- 

in first line, asking storyboard perform segue. so, story board create instance of view controller views , subviews , display.

in second line, creating own instance of view controller.. displaying it? -- no one.

your loading url in wrong instance.

ok now, how gain access view controller being displayed?

xcode/ios gives option prepareforsegue can access vc , webview shown below load request.

- (void)prepareforsegue:(uistoryboardsegue *)segue sender:(id)sender {     if([segue.identifier isequaltostring:@"googlesearch"]){         googlesearchviewcontroller *vc = nil;         if([segue.destinationviewcontroller iskindofclass:[uinavigationcontroller class]]){             uinavigationcontroller *navvc = (uinavigationcontroller *)segue.destinationviewcontroller;             vc = (googlesearchviewcontroller *)navvc.viewcontrollers[0];         }else{             vc = segue.destinationviewcontroller;         }         if(vc){             nsurl *url = [nsurl urlwithstring:appendedurlstring];             nsurlrequest *request = [nsurlrequest requestwithurl:url];             [vc.googlewebview loadrequest:request];          }     }  } 

would interested know if worked you
