Use Subclass in Interface Builder

I have a subclass of NSOpenGLView which named POpenGLView. I tried two ways
to use it in IB:

Method 1:
To create an OpenGL view in IB directly, and set its class type
"POpenGLView".

Method 2:
To create a NSView in IB, and set its class type "POpenGLView".

The most significant difference between the two ways is
  - in Method 2, initWithFrame: is invoked.
  - in Method 1, initWithCoder: is invoked.

I checked Apple examples and found this one:
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#samplecode/GLEssentials/Listings/main_m.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/DTS40010104-main_m-DontLinkElementID_31

Apple's example takes Method 2 and relies on the behavior of invoking
initWithFrame: .

What's the rule of IB/XIB regarding picking instantiate method?

Thanks,
Dong
