The usual cause of such behavior is the timing of NIB loading. There are
various points at which code can be executed (init..., awakeFromNib,
viewDidMoveToSuperview, etc), and it can be hard to keep track of the
correctness of your assumptions of what must have happened already.
In order to transfer the label successfully, you need both view1 and view2 to
have been loaded. Since NSViewController's 'view' method causes the view to be
loaded if necessary, you can be certain it's done *after* executing:
[self.view addSubview:viewController2.view];
since that references both views. Did you try putting the other line:
[viewController2.label2 setText:label1.text];
*after* the 'addSubview' line instead of before?
Is the label static in view1's NIB? If so, why can't you just use IB to put the
same label text in view2 and have no code at all?
