iPhone: Weird space at the top of UINavigationController

Question

I\'m having a strange problem with adding a UINavigationController to my iPhone application. I add the controller as follows:

myViewController *viewControlle         


        

Answer 1

What does the line

UIView *finalView = myeNavigationViewController.view;

add to the code? It's redundant as you can add the view directly without assigning it to a UIView first - plus it's incorrect as it references the myNavigationController and not navigationController..
I tend to do this

myViewController *viewController = [[myViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"myView" bundle:nil];    
myNavigationViewController *navigationController = [[myNavigationViewController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController];
[navigationController.view setFrame: [self.view bounds]];
navigationController.delegate = self;
[self.view addSubview:[navigationController view]];

Setting the frame to the bounds also removes the white space at the top you were asking about.
