If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please show me your guidance.

From some work I did earlier this year for a client, UIImagePickerController needs to be presented modally or in a UIPopoverController. It also doesn't handle being a root view controller very well (window.rootViewController =
imagePickerController).

Without going the route of using the various AV Foundation APIs to implement
your own camera controller class, the solution I used was to present the
UIImagePickerController modally in the root view controller's
-viewDidAppear: method (you could try in -viewWillAppear:).



That is all true - on top of that, after introducing view controller containment in iOS5 to give people a proper way of doing what was always not recommended, taking a view from ViewController B and slapping it into ViewController A, iOS 6 is finally strict about it. You just can't do this any more.


That's good. :)
I don't like people who just write code which just looks to work because their managers or people at asked-company-if-contracted don't know about programming. I have seen so many people in Windows and Mac, and now even in iPhone world who didn't understand paradigm of a framework and just write code without knowing that it violated the paradigm. When something doesn't abide by the paradigm, it may work now, but can break seriously soon.
Also, it's highly possible that it is not even properly implemented.
What I'm saying is just like this : a guy just implemnted 1+1 = 2 like : 1 + (uh... i don't know what to do ) + 2 + 3 - 3 - 1 (hmm.. it looks working.. ) = 1
However, welll... cruel world. I got such source code on my hand.

If you want to mix views from different VCs on the screen, you now *must* use View Controller Containment (and that's the right thing to look for in the documentation).

The advice above about UIImagePickerController is I believe also true, that thing really wants to be modal (I hope they change that one day).
by using.. like.. addChildViewController: right?

I found this explanation in Apple's document. ( view property in UIViewController class reference. )

"Each view controller object is the sole owner of its view. You must not associate the same view object with multiple view controller objects. The only exception to this rule is that a container view controller implementation may add this view as a subview in its own view hierarchy. Before adding the subview, the container must first call its |addChildViewController: <http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIViewController_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/UIViewController/addChildViewController:>| method to create a parent-child relationship between the two view controller objects."

It sounds like that if I add UIImagePicker controller using addChildViewController:, it's possible to set the view of a root view controller to the view of UIImagePicker. but it didn't work last night. Probably I missed something. I would like to read their document more.

There are a few things I would like to try (again) :

1. |presentViewController:animated:completion: <http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIViewController_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/UIViewController/presentViewController:animated:completion:>
2. addChildViewController:

What do you think about it?

I'm switching to Windows mode by launching Visual Studio... :(

Thank you.
