I subclassed two view controllers. The first one is supposed to pass data, a NSUrl object to the second one. .m of the first one: NSURL *temp = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://example.com"]; UIViewController *presentationsFullScreen_ViewController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"PresentationsFullScreen_ViewController"]; presentationsFullScreen_ViewController.urlToUse = temp; .h of the second one: #import <UIKit/UIKit.h> @interface PresentationsFullScreen_ViewController : UIViewController { NSURL *urlToUse; } @property (nonatomic,retain) NSURL *urlToUse; It is obviously not working and not compiling,telling me essentially that I didn't subclass it and that the property urlToUse is not found on UIViewController. How do I subclass correctly? Thanks!
