No, they have not.
Instead, the NIB loading code uses a magic, called Key/Value coding, to
set the outlet values (actually, it is a bit more complicated, but
let's stay with this).
It is excellently described e.g., at
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/
KeyValueCoding/index.html

Perhaps more directly relevant to IB:
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/ IBTips/Articles/MakingConnections.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20002101>

"Outlets"
