Drawing a rectangle in UIView

Question

I am trying to draw a transparent rectangle in my UIView which has a black border.

My code however creates a completely black rectangle. Here\'s my code so far:

Answer 1

- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect
{
    // Drawing code
    CGRect rectangle = CGRectMake(0, 100, 320, 100);
    CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
    CGContextSetRGBFillColor(context, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0);   //this is the transparent color
    CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor(context, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.5);
    CGContextFillRect(context, rectangle);
    CGContextStrokeRect(context, rectangle);    //this will draw the border

}

the effect is like this (backgroundColor is blue)
