has set the IBOutlet by code but can not see outlets

Question

MyView.m code is

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface MyView : UIView
{

}

@property (strong, nonatomic)IBOutlet UILabel *aLabel;

but when I open the xib file MyView.xib relates to MyView.h/MyView.m(has set the file owner as Myview, I can not see the IBOutlet aLabel

Is there a way can make UIView also can show IBOutlet aLabel, just like an UIViewController does?

Your comment welcome

Answer 1

Check your Outlets in your view not under the file's owner. See the screenshot.

Answer 2

First, your object is sub-class of UIView, which isn't can be natively relate to a xib. You should use UIViewController instead.

2nd. In case of you want to use an UIView in a xib, here is the way you can have it:

1. open your xib, click in the view that you want to turn it as your class.
2. open the right-side menu, and select the 3rd tab.
3. fill "class" field as your class name.
4. and now you can right click to the view and see your IBOutlet
