Chapter 6. Other View Controllers

Now that we’ve discussed the UITableView and UINavigationController (as well as their associated classes and views) and built an iPhone application using them, you’ve actually come a long way toward being able to write applications on your own. With these classes under your belt, you have the tools to attack a large slice of the problem space that iPhone applications normally address.

In this chapter, we’ll look at some of the other view controllers and classes that will be useful when building your applications: simple two-screen views (utility applications), single-screen tabbed views (tab bar applications), a view controller that takes over the whole screen until dismissed (modal view controller), and a view controller for selecting video and images (image picker view controller).
