Can't connect IBOutlet in Interface Builder

Question

I\'m having a weird experience. I create any type of iPhone application, add a UIViewController with Xib file. I can edit the xib file with controls and see them rendered if

For me the issue was that I had created a MyUITextView extending the UITextView and X-Code would'nt connect. My workaround was to use UITextView in IBOutlet temporarily to connect/link and then change to my custom view.

So I changed.

IBOutlet MyUITextView *tv;

to

IBOutlet UITextView *tv;

and then connected/ linked. Once connected, I changed my OBOutlet back to MyUITextView

IBOutlet MyUITextView *tv;
