I have an array initialized in my RootViewController and a method that addsObjects to an array. I created a RootViewController object in my SecondViewController. The method runs (outputs a message) but it doesn't add anything to the array, and the array seems empty. Code is below, any suggestions?

RootViewController.h

#import "RootViewController.h"
#import "SecondViewController.h"

@implementation RootViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    myArray2 = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

    NSLog(@"View was loaded");
}
-(void)addToArray2{
    NSLog(@"Array triggered from SecondViewController");
    [myArray2 addObject:@"Test"];
    [self showArray2];
}

-(void)showArray2{
    NSLog(@"Array Count: %d", [myArray2 count]);
}
-(IBAction)switchViews{
    SecondViewController *screen = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
    screen.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical;
    [self presentModalViewController:screen animated:YES];
    [screen release];
}

SecondViewController.m

#import "SecondViewController.h"
#import "RootViewController.h"

@implementation SecondViewController

-(IBAction)addToArray{

    RootViewController *object = [[RootViewController alloc] init];
    [object addToArray2];

}
-(IBAction)switchBack{
    [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

EDIT*****

With Matt's code I got the following error:

" expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'RootViewController' "
