IBOutlet Connections and Inheritance

Question

I'm having two issues with a interstitial class hierarchy I'm writing at the moment.

There's a base class for my interstitials:

• Base class: JSBaseCustomizeableIntersitialView
• Child class1: JSInviteFriendsCustomizableIntersititialView
• Child class2: JSBadgeCustomizableIntersititialView

The base class holds the IBOutlets for common UI for every interstitial I'm going to be developing: title, description, a "flavor" image, and ok/cancel button.

Each subclass has its own View in a xib file, which I'm trying to connect to the outlets declared on the base class.

Any idea how to do this? Here's a graphical example of what I'm trying to achieve:

Answer 1

Within Interface Builder, select the Identity Inspector from the Utilities pane. In the Custom Class section, fill out your required subclass there.

Then select the Connections Inspector and hook-up your required outlets.

Repeat this for each UIView you have.
