I have the method being called now in SecondViewController, but suddenly my
UILabel there is (null). ??
// Called from the FirstViewController
-(void)populateTextFieldWithString:(id)string {
[commandText2 setText:string];
NSLog(@"populateTextFieldWithString: %@, %@", string, commandText2 ); //
string is okay but the UILabel is (null)
}
A scope issue?
