dismissViewControllerAnimated:completion: Push to another ViewController

Question

I'm just wondering if it's possible to push to a ViewController right after I dismissed one.

I've been trying with this:

     -(void)dismiss{
    //send information to database here

    [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
                    NSLog(@"Dismiss completed");
                    [self pushtoSingle:post_id];
                }];
}

-(void)pushtoSingle:(int)post_id{
    Single1ViewController *svc = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"SingleView"];
    svc.post_id = post_id;
    svc.page = 998;
    [self.navigationController pushViewController:svc animated:YES];
}

And this:

    -(void)dismiss{

//send information to database here

[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
                    NSLog(@"Dismiss completed");
                    Single1ViewController *svc = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"SingleView"];
                    svc.post_id = post_id;
                    svc.page = 998;
                    [self.navigationController pushViewController:svc animated:YES];
                }];
}

But with no success. The view is successfully is dismissed but the push is never initialized.. Is there another known way around the problem?

Answer 1

Yep, I figured it out. I simply posted a notification after I dismissed the ViewController B to A and then received the notification in A and pushed to C..

Dismissing in B:

[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{

    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"pushToSingle" object:nil userInfo:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:post_id1] forKey:@"post_id"]];
}];

Receiving in A:

-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated{   
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(pushToSingle:) name:@"pushToSingle" object:nil];
}

-(void)pushToSingle:(NSNotification *)notis{
    NSDictionary *dict = notis.userInfo;
    int post_id = [[dict objectForKey:@"post_id"] intValue];

    NSLog(@"pushing to single");
    Single1ViewController *svc = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"SingleView"];
    svc.post_id = post_id;
    svc.page = 998;
    [self.navigationController pushViewController:svc animated:YES];

}
