App terminates after viewcontroller calls the delegate to close the view.

Question

Hi experts,

here the situation: i have a viewcontroller which calls in the function "viewDidLoad" a function in the AppDelegateIphone to terminate this view. The problem is that this exception comes if i make this:

splashScreen.view = nil;



    *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: '-[UIViewController _loadViewFromNibNamed:bundle:] loaded the "SplashScreenController_iPhone" nib but the view outlet was not set.'
*** Call stack at first throw:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'NSException'
Program received signal:  “SIGABRT”.

if I call the function with the splashScreen.view = nil; in the appDelegate itself, then everything is working just fine.

Please tell me where is my fault, or wheather I should post more code.

Answer 1

loaded the "SplashScreenController_iPhone" nib but the view outlet was not set.

Have you made the view outlet in interface builder? Seems that you have not set it up correctly. And also from the stack trace, it's clear that viewDidLoad haven't been called, as the view is yet to be successfully loaded.
