I am building an iOS app and i have most of the code/GUI built (its a single view app). Now i have the .xib and controller.h file next to each other and I want to associate
I think you should rephrase you question.. It's very confusing. But if i understand what you are saying, you now have the files open side-by-side in the using the assistant editor. The Xib file on the left hand side, the .h file on the right. correct?
Now you are trying to link the event in the control, to the method you have defined in the .h file. right?
So if you are in fact seeing the methods in the .h file that you want to link to, but the editor is not letting you link to it, then chances are that you have have the xib file side-by-side with the wrong .h file. Are you sure that the .xib file and the .h that are side-by-side are both called controller ? controller.h and controller.xib ?
