Body
I have an older version of an app installed on a device. In my new version I no longer had use of a .xib file as it changed from something complex to just a table view and I can instantiate it in code. However, when I build and run on the device it crashes as it still tries to load the controller from the .xib file contained in the older app, and complains about a key/value pair missing for a UILabel. For example: SomeViewController.h (UITableViewController) SomeViewController.m SomeViewController.xib (removed in new version) <pre><code>SomeViewController *controller = [[SomeViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain]; - (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style { self = [super initWithStyle:style]; if (self) { } return self; } </code></pre> Even though I call "initWithStyle" it still tries to load the pre-existing .xib! My current solution is to create SomeViewController.xib with a blank UITableView. I suspect however, that when users update the app from the app store it will overwrite the entire app and not leave anything behind. Is this true? Do app updates overwrite the existing app or does it leave lingering .xib files? Now I have to test the older version with every other view to insure there is no other problems lingering. Reading through the developer text on NIB's: <a href="http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/LoadingResources/CocoaNibs/CocoaNibs.html" rel="nofollow">http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/LoadingResources/CocoaNibs/CocoaNibs.html</a> Perhaps I found a bug? Another option is for me to re-name the class to something else like SomeController so as to avoid automatically loading the associated .xib file.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
