I've created a custom UIView as a .xib file with the UIView having a single button. I load the UIView using the below code.
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
CustomViewRepresentable()
}
}
struct CustomViewRepresentable: UIViewRepresentable {
typealias UIViewType = CustomView
func makeUIView(context: UIViewRepresentableContext<CustomViewRepresentable>) -> CustomView {
let customView = Bundle.main.loadNibNamed("CustomView", owner: nil, options: nil)![0] as! CustomView
return customView
}
func updateUIView(_ uiView: CustomView, context: UIViewRepresentableContext<CustomViewRepresentable>) {
}
}
The custom view has the below code:
class CustomView: UIView {
@IBOutlet weak var button: UIButton!
override init(frame: CGRect) {
super.init(frame: frame)
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: coder)
}
override class func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
// Error - Instance member 'button' cannot be used on type 'CustomView'
button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(touchUpInside), for: .touchUpInside)
}
@objc func touchUpInside(_ sender: UIButton) {
print("Button clicked")
}
}
I've uploaded the source code to github. Here's the link https://github.com/felixmariaa/AwakeFromNibTest/
This is supposed to work and I'm not sure what is going wrong.
When typing awakeFromNib, I used the autocomplete provided by XCode to complete the function, which resulted in the below code:
override class func awakeFromNib() {
}
Notice the class in the func declaration. This was causing the error: I removed it and the code worked fine. Thought this would help someone.
