I'm trying to create a dynamic view flow that uses UIContainerView
s to host UIViewController
s. The UIContainerView
s (or UIViewController
s) need to be programmatically added to the UIView
to allow multiple side by side.
I've been looking around, but can't find any constructors I can use to create my UIContainerView
.
Is there a simple way to do this or is it against normal guidelines for creating reusable views?
To sum up, I want to achieve something like this:
var containerView = UIContainerView()
containerView.add(myViewController)
A UIContainerView
is just a visual way to add a viewController as a child of another and setting its bounds.
You can do this programatically by adding the second viewController as a child of the first, taking the second's view and placing it somewhere on the first's view.
Something like this;
childVC = [[SomeViewController alloc] init];
[self addChildViewController:childVC];
[self.view addSubview:childVC.view];
[childVC didMoveToParentViewController:self];
