Create a title and button on navigation bar

Question

I am trying to replicate iPhone's Contacts application and to create a button over navigation bar. Actually the view is not a UINavigation controller. I just added the navigation bar programatically but I am struggling to create a title and a button on that navigation bar.

I am using the following code

[[UIBarButton alloc]] initWithTitle:@"Done" 
                              Style:UIBarButonItemStyleBorderd 
                              target:Self 
                              action:selector(btnClicked)];  
self.navigationItem.rightBArButtonItem=btnDone; 
[self.view addSubview:navigationBar];

Please refer iphone contact application in simulator.

Any help will be appreciated.

try this code chunk

UIBarButtonItem *rightButton = **[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Done" 
    style:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:nil action:nil];**
UINavigationItem *item = [[UINavigationItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Title"];
item.rightBarButtonItem = rightButton;
item.hidesBackButton = YES;
[bar pushNavigationItem:item animated:NO];
[rightButton release];
[item release];
