how to open my tabbarcontroller from scendelegate-CodePudding

I have 2 viewcontrollers in a tabbar controller i am trying to open the first viewcontroller, showing the whole tabbar from scene delegate

i have

let storyBoard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
            let viewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "ViewController") as! ViewController
            self.window?.rootViewController = viewController
            self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()

Main is the storyboard and ViewController is the file for the first ViewController

with this, I see the first view controller, but I can't see the tabbar options

thanks in advance

CodePudding user response：

To do this, you need to instantiate the UITabBarController - not your first view controller.

In your storyboard, give your UITabBarController an identifier just like you did for your ViewController

After doing that, replace this line:

let viewController
    = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "ViewController") as! ViewController

with

let viewController
    = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "YourTabBarControllerIdentifier") as! UITabBarController

I believe this should work as you intended then
