I have created a custom cell for loading into a table. The interface is complete and now I am trying to link the xib and the class.
I have the split screen view open
So, it turns out that I was being a fool. You can't quite do it like this with Xcode. If you create the properties manually in the header file, then synthesise them in the class file, you can then link by doing the following:
Open the xib file Right click on the cell in the "Objects" panel Click and drag from the options here to the objects on the xib.
That's all there was to it.
