I have 2 view controllers, one with a switch that when toggled should post the following notification. In the other view controller I have Observers which should trigger the following function which just toggles a boolean. I am not able to get the observers to work and make that function call, am I doing something wrong here? I have another Notification (Doesn't trigger with user input) that is being sent in the opposite direction which works fine.
@IBAction func switchAction(_ sender: Any) {
if switchUI.isOn {
print("Collecting Data ")
NotificationCenter.default.post(name:NSNotification.Name(rawValue: "Collect"), object: self)
}
else
{
print("Not Collecting Data")
NotificationCenter.default.post(name:NSNotification.Name(rawValue: "Do Not Collect"), object: self)
}
}
func collectDataObserver () {
//Add an Observer
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(CentralViewController.toggleData(notification:)), name: Notification.Name(rawValue: "Collect"), object: nil)
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(CentralViewController.toggleData(notification:)), name: Notification.Name(rawValue: "Do Not Collect"), object: nil)
}
@objc func toggleData(notification: NSNotification) {
let isCollectData = notification.name.rawValue == "Collect"
if(isCollectData){
IsCollectingData = true
}
else
{
IsCollectingData = false
}
}
You need to call collectDataObserver()
in viewDidLoad()
of CentralViewController
, i.e.
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
collectDataObserver()
}
