It seems to me it is exactly how it is intended to be used from the previous posts : a custom (I mean user defined) NSView subclass (NSOpenGLView subclass, in fact) inside a window, but I admit my answer was perhaps too much general/incorrect...

To better clarify this, does it mean that views that stand on their own (not in a window) in the nib file do not receive -initWithFrame: ? Are there other situations in which initWithFrame: would not be invoked on user-defined NSView subclasses ?

objects in nib files are inited with :

-init (other objects)

So, you should override initWithFrame, I believe.

-awakeFromNib, on the other hand is invoked after all nib objects have been brought to life.


This is completely wrong.

here is a note we added in the IB FAQ to explain this.

 Why isn't my initWithFrame: method called?

initWithFrame: is only called when you have added a Custom View object to your window. The initWithFrame: message is sent to the class you specified in the Attributes Info Panel. Other widgets will not recieve initWithFrame:
messages. In this case you should just implement a -(void)awakeFromNib method to handle any further setup at runtime
