MBProgressHUD Block interface until operation is done

Question

I need to block the interface until the MBProgressHUD operation is done. I did refer this thread,

Block interface until operation is done

According to it, we should disable each individual item which wont work for me. My case is I need to disable user from clicking back button. I did try HUD.userInteractionEnabled = YES which disable every controller except the back button. Is there any way of blocking user from popping out from that controller?

Answer 1

if u dont find a proper way to do that, you can ignore the whole user interaction by

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] beginIgnoringInteractionEvents];

.U can stop this by

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] endIgnoringInteractionEvents];

Answer 2

You can add the MBProgressHUD to the navigation controller's view so that it also prevents interaction with the back button:

[MBProgressHUD showHUDAddedTo:self.navigationController.view animated:YES];
