I am trying to find a way to initialise a view controller which has IBOutlets to a custom view that I have created in a XIB.
Here is the code where I initialise my class:
MyContentViewController *pageContentViewController = [[MyContentViewController alloc] init];
self.pageContent = pageContentViewController;
[pageContentViewController view];
MyContentViewController has the following properties:
@interface MyContentViewController : UIViewController
@property (nonatomic, weak) IBOutlet MyContentView *topLeftView;
@property (nonatomic, weak) IBOutlet MyContentView *topRightView;
@property (nonatomic, weak) IBOutlet MyContentView *bottomLeftView;
@property (nonatomic, weak) IBOutlet MyContentView *bottomRightView;
In MyContentViewController xib I have 4 views which I have set as MyContentView and have hooked the IBOutlet's above to the views in the storyboard.
The custom view is defined as following:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface MyContentView : UIView
@property (nonatomic, strong) IBOutlet UILabel *labelView;
@end
However when I run the application, I get the 4 views I have added in the MyContentViewController xib. However none of them display the UILabel from the custom UIView.
I have added the following in MyContentView:
- (void)awakeFromNib {
NSLog(@"VIEW AWAKE");
}
This get printed out so the views are being loaded. However how can I get them to display using the 4 IBOutlets.
Here is a picture of the app running with the view. There is no labels on the 4 views:
