How To Use:

In your RootViewController.h file, add the following code

#import "SHStripeMenuExecuter.h"
#import "SHStripeMenuActionDelegate.h"

RootViewController should implement SHStripeMenuActionDelegate, it contains a method to makes sure that menu selection has been handled in the root controller class

@interface YourRootViewController : UIViewController<SHStripeMenuActionDelegate>

Add the property executer to your RootViewController

@property (nonatomic, strong) SHStripeMenuExecuter	*executer; 

Initialize 'executer' in your viewDidLoad function

if (_executer == nil)
		_executer = [[SHStripeMenuExecuter alloc] init];
	[_executer setupToParentView:self];

Add method that is declared in protocol SHStripeMenuActionDelegate, it is where you will receive the menu action

- (void)stripeMenuItemSelected:(NSString *)menuName
{
	if ([menuName isEqualToString:@"home"])
	{
		// 
	}
	else if ([menuName isEqualToString:@"graph"])
	{
		// 
	}
	else if ([menuName isEqualToString:@"chat"])
	{
		// 
	}
}
