UISplitViewController Portrait

/*Note: This works in OS versions greater than or equal to iOS 6.0
OS versions less than iOS 6.0 has a different look in its UIPopoverController and doesn't support Landscape Orientation.*/

Please do continue from where we left off in our UISplitViewController Landscape Tutorial...

1. Add <UISplitViewControllerDelegate> in PopMenuDetailViewController interface header.

2. Add UIPopoverController property in PopMenuDetailViewController interface Section.

@property (strong, nonatomic) UIPopoverController *masterPopoverController;

Synthesize this property:

@synthesize masterPopoverController;

By the way, UIPopoverController is only available in iPad. If you want to make something like this in your iPhone application, you may use third party libraries like WEPopoverController. Download it from github.

3. Copy these SplitView Delegate methods in our PopMenuDetailViewController.m file.

4. In AppDelegate.m file, add this one-line code in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method after initializing splitViewController.

splitViewController.delegate = detailVC; 

5. Hit Run!
