On storyboards, views and passing data along

Question

In my Xcode 4.2 storyboard, i have 2 UIViewControllers, This one time and In band camp

• In This one time, i have a UIButton with "silly name" on it
• In In band camp, i have a UILabel with "label" on it

Considering that we're dealing with 2 separate classes AND we're in Xcode 4.2 using storyboards (where transition between views is setup via a segue) how can i pass "silly name" from view controller This one time to the label in view controller In band camp?"

Answer 1

1. Set the identifier of segue in storyboard to "AwesomeSegue"
2. Implement prepareForSegue method

3. Inside the method, check if identifier of segue matches "AwesomeSegue" - if yes, use the destinationViewControllerObject

   - (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender {
       if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"AwesomeSegue"]) {
           InBandCampViewController *ibcVC = [segue destinationViewController];
           ibcVC.yourData = self.someStuff;
       }
   }
