load array in messageBody

[thehindutimes]

I've got an NSMutableArray *order in a view, firstViewController.

And in my secondViewController I'm creating an MFMailComposer where I want to load that array in the messageBody.

How do I reference that array so so that Xcode knows where to get it from?

I've imported firstViewController.h and I'm calling the array like this:


MFMailComposeViewController *orderComposer = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
[orderComposer setMailComposeDelegate:self];
if ([MFMailComposeViewController canSendMail]) {
[orderComposer setToRecipients:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"E-mail address", nil]];
[orderComposer setSubject:@"Ämne här"];

for(int i=0; i<order; i++){

[orderComposer setMessageBody:[order objectAtIndex:i] isHTML:NO];

}

[orderComposer setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleCros sDissolve];
[self.tabBarController presentModalViewControllerrderComposer animated:YES];
[orderComposer release];
}
else
[orderComposer release];


But I get an error message saying Use of undeclared identifier 'order'.

Can anyone help?
Thanks!

You could assign the array "order" to an nsmutablearray in secondviewcontroller. so when u create the second view controller in the first view controller and are about to push it onto the stack you would assign the array like below.

secondViewController *secondVC = [[secondViewController alloc] init];
   

    secondVC.order = self.order
  
    
    [self.navigationController pushViewController:secondVC animated:YES];
    [secondVC release];

something like that might be what you want

umm..maybe.

Basically what I need to do is just get the array order in my firstViewController from my secondViewController.

Which should just be firstViewController.order right?

But then I get an error saying property 'order' not found on object of type firstViewController.

No im afraid it doesnt work like that. Just having the .h of an instance with a file doesnt allow you to see instance variables of that class. Unless you have a pointer to your firstViewController within you second you cant access any of its instance variables. I think the way i said above is the way to do what your looking for. so with secondviewcontroler have an nsmutablearray called order too . and set its @property(nonatomic,retain/assign or whatever you need it to be)nsmutablearray *order. and then @syntezise it in your secondviewcontroller.m to allow you to be able to assign it from firstviewcontroller.m

You could try using a Singleton as discussed here: http://www.iphonedevsdk.com/forum/ip...n-classes.html

since you are sharing data between two views.
