Interface Builder FUBAR - Won't load any classes/resources

[frankenspank]

Guys,

I am having problems with IB. It's not showing up any images or classes any more. No matter where I put them.

When I add classes directly to the library from the "read class" menu, they still don't show up in most parts of the UI.

The only way I can hook up the outlets and delegates is by right clicking the "Owner File" section and dragging the outlets to the parts. From day one, I had been draing parts to outlets.

This is the second or third time this has happened to me with this project. Anyone know if some way I can "repair" what's broken automatically? This buggy tool is killing me, it really is.

This won't help you out, but I don't use IB anymore. It makes my classes more readable, and I find it easier to develop. It also gives you more control over the user interface.
Sometimes, I use IB for laying out stuff visually before I write everything out in code.

Yeah. I probably won't use IB on a project in the future, but for now I am stuck with it. I wonder every day how Apple could release such a turd.

For future reference, Does anyone know if there are any compile-time code generation tools? Id like a simple XML based approach for defining views - it would be fairly simple to generate a category and put all your view initialization code in a generated category.
