Hi. I am having a weird problem that viewDidLoad isn't called. Actually it's not a problem - I can use -awakeFromNib initializator instead, but I am wondering why viewDidLoad is not called (as it is automatically generated by xcode with a comment "place your initialization code here", when I create a new View Controller with a XIB)?
Here's what I am doing. I created a new Xcode non-storyboard project, created an NSViewController's subclass with a XIB (let's call it MyVC), and added the following code to the app delegate: static MyVC *myVC; - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification { myVC = [[MyVC alloc] initWithNibName:@"MyVC" bundle:nil]; [myVC loadView]; self.window.contentView = myVC.view; } *inside MyVC.m I have * @implementation MyVC - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; NSLog(@"%@ viewDidLoad", [self className]); // Do view setup here. } - (void)awakeFromNib { [super awakeFromNib]; NSLog(@"%@ awakeFromNib", [self className]); } @end When I run the project, only "MyVC awakeFromNib" is printed out. Why viewDidLoad isn't called? _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
