Objective-C didSelectRowAtIndexPath and serge to view controller - objective-c

Question

I am using a UITableViewController and didSelectRowAtIndexPath like so:
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
NSString *type = [[self.tableData objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"Type"];
if([type isEqualTOString: #"PDF"]){
//GOTO View Controller
}else{
NSArray *elements = [[[self.tableData objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"Name"] componentsSeparatedByString:#"FTP\\"];
currentPath = [[[[self.tableData objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"Name"] componentsSeparatedByString:#"FTP\\"] lastObject];
NSString *escapedString = [elements[1] stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters:[NSCharacterSet URLHostAllowedCharacterSet]];
self.tableData = [dataSource.areaData GetFilesAndDirectories:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",escapedString]];
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
}
is what I am trying to do possible? If the type is PDF goto the view Controller, else just update the table view.
Currently, When I select a row, it goes to View Controller, everytime.
This is what I got:
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
NSString *type = [[self.tableData objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"Type"];
if([type isEqualToString: #"Directory"]){
NSArray *elements = [[[self.tableData objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"Name"] componentsSeparatedByString:#"FTP\\"];
currentPath = [[[[self.tableData objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"Name"] componentsSeparatedByString:#"FTP\\"] lastObject];
NSString *escapedString = [elements[1] stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters:[NSCharacterSet URLHostAllowedCharacterSet]];
self.tableData = [dataSource.areaData GetFilesAndDirectories:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",escapedString]];
[self.tableView reloadData];
}else{
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:#"showDetail" sender:self.view];
}
}
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:#"showDetail"])
{
NSLog(#"Here");
}
}
But it still goes to the View Controller everytime.

Answer 1

Yes it is possible.
In the PDF if you should Create the view controller you want to present and then call the presentViewController:animated:completion: method of the current view controller, passing in the PDF view controller you want.
EDIT: I didn't see the edited last sentence.
The only issue i found is a misstype in isEqualToString function and the chance that your type string could be nil.
EDIT 2:
I add an example of my own code. In this case the view allways open, but its different depending of the content if.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
[tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
NSInteger row = [indexPath row];
locationData *locData;
if (indexPath.section == 0) {
locData= [self.sortEDlocations objectAtIndex:row];
}
else {
if(_btnUrgentCareFilter.isSelected){
locData = [self.filterSortOtherLocations objectAtIndex:row];
}else{
locData = [self.sortOtherLocations objectAtIndex:row];
}
}
[self showDetailView:locData];
}
