didSelectViewController and tab bar tutorial

[b_f20]

I am trying to implement didSelectViewController using the mdmstudio's tab bar tutorial.
I am try to load data from the net everytime a user clicks on one of the tabbaritems (they shouldnt click it all the time). I need to be able to recognize that event.
I've added the didSelectViewController() to the code and set a break point and nslog, but it never gets to that point.

suggestions???
thanks

Found a solution:

-I added tab bar controller's delegate to the custom object
-Added IBOutlet UITabBarController to customcontroller.h

This leads me to a new problem.
How do you get the title of the selected tabbaritem when didSelectViewController() is signaled?

NSString *tabBarItemTitle = selectedviewcontroller.tabbaritem.text; ???

Hi

The title can be found in viewController.tabBarItem.title

Example

// Optional UITabBarControllerDelegate method
- (void)tabBarController:(UITabBarController *)tabBarController didSelectViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController {
	if ([viewController.tabBarItem.title isEqualToString:@"something"])
    {
        // Do something
    }
	
}

I have this same problem. Can you explain how you added the tab bar delegate to the custom object?
