The controller object's initializer method will be called even when it
is being instantiated from a nib, perhaps what you are trying to do in
-awakeFromNib or -initWithCoder: really should be in -init.

I have a (non-document-based) application whose main controller needs
to have an instance variable set before -awakeFromNib is called. Right
now I'm doing this by implementing -initWithCoder:, setting the
variable, and returning self without doing anything else. It seems to
work, but I'd like to know if this is the best way. The variable is
not an outlet and can't be set from IB.
Alternatively, is there any way to prevent -awakeFromNib from being
called on the controller being awoken as the File Owner in a secondary
nib? The idea here is to prevent -awakeFromNib from being executed
more than once, without having to implement an entire separate
controller class for the one outlet and one method the sheet I'm
loading needs. I could put the sheet in the main nib, but Apple keeps
telling us not to put more than one window into one nib. Thoughts?
