Loaded the nib file but the view outlet was not set

Question

I deleted the universityPicker.xib accidentally and then made a new one with the same name but no connection could be done. The file crashes and gives this message

Answer 1

• Open the universityPicker.XIB file
  • Click on file's owner icon on the left bar
  • Click on the third tab in the right-hand sidebar
  • Under "Custom Class" at the top, make sure Class is the name of the ViewController that should correspond to this view. If not, enter it
  • In the right-hand sidebar, click on the last tab
  • You should see "outlets" with "view" under it. Drag the circle next to it over to the "view" icon on the left bar
  • Save the xib and re-run

Answer 2

In the Interface Builder you should connect the View to the File's Owner.
