iPhone go from View to TableView

Question

I have a login view and after checking the username i want to go to a table view. I downloaded the SimpleDrillDown App from apple sample codes, and i want when i run the application to first view the login page and after that the TableView.

If someone has the time the project can be found here : http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/samplecode/SimpleDrillDown/index.html

The changes that i had made are:

SimpleDrillDownAppDelegate.m

import "SimpleDrillDownAppDelegate.h"
import "RootViewController.h"
import "LoginViewController.h"
import "DataController.h"


@implementation SimpleDrillDownAppDelegate

@synthesize window;
@synthesize navigationController;
@synthesize rootViewController;
@synthesize loginViewController;
@synthesize dataController;


- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
    
   
    //thomas add this
    LoginViewController *_loginViewController = [[LoginViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"LoginView" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
    self.loginViewController = _loginViewController;
//  [_loginViewController release];
//  
    //thomas add this
    
    // Create the data controller.
    //DataController *controller = [[DataController alloc] init];
//    self.dataController = controller;
//    [controller release];
    
    //rootViewController.dataController = dataController;
    
    /*
     The navigation and root view controllers are created in the main nib file.
     Configure the window with the navigation controller's view and then show it.
     */
    //thomas commented this and copy this into LoginView
    //[window addSubview:[navigationController view]];
    
    //thomas add this
    [window addSubview:[loginViewController view]];
    //thomas add this
    
    
    [window makeKeyAndVisible];
}


- (void)dealloc {
    //[navigationController release];
    //[rootViewController release];
    [loginViewController release];
    [window release];
    //[dataController release];
    [super dealloc];
}

@end

    rootViewController.dataController = dataController;
    
    
  [self pushViewController:self.navigationController animated:YES];
    }else{
        printf("ERROR");
    }
    
    
    
}


@end

Finally i get this error

In your login IBAction, send the LoginViewController the pushViewController: animated: message. That message and its counter-part, popViewControllerAnimated: is available in the UINavigationController class.

Unfortunately, your LoginViewController isn't a UINavigationController.

You can fix that particular error by changing it to:

[self.navigationController pushViewController:self.dataController animated:YES];

That assumes that LoginViewController is being hosted by a UINavigationController.
