The basic view controller class supports the presentation of an associated view in addition to basic support for managing modal views and, in the future, animations. Subclasses such as CPNavigationController and CPTabBarController provide additional behavior for managing complex hierarchies of view controllers and views. You use each instance of CPViewController to manage a single view (and hierarchy). For a simple view controller, this entails managing the view hierarchy responsible for presenting your application content. A typical view hierarchy consists of a root view, a reference to which is available in the view property of this class, and one or more subviews presenting the actual content. In the case of navigation and tab bar controllers, the view controller manages not only the high-level view hierarchy (which provides the navigation controls) but also one or more additional view controllers that handle the presentation of the application content. Unlike UIViewController in Cocoa Touch, a CPViewController does not represent an entire screen of content. You will add your root view to an existing view or window's content view. You can manage many view controllers on screen at once. CPViewController is also the preferred way of working with Cibs. Subclasses can override -loadView to create their custom view hierarchy, or specify a cib name to be loaded automatically. It has methods that are called when a view appears or disappears. This class is also a good place for delegate & datasource methods, and other controller stuff. */ @implementation CPViewController : CPResponder { CPView _view @accessors(property=view); BOOL _isLoading; BOOL _isLazy; id _representedObject @accessors(property=representedObject); CPString _title @accessors(property=title); CPString _cibName @accessors(property=cibName, readonly); CPBundle _cibBundle @accessors(property=cibBundle, readonly); CPDictionary _cibExternalNameTable @accessors(property=cibExternalNameTable, readonly); } + (void)initialize { if (self === CPViewController) CPViewControllerCachedCibs = [CPDictionary dictionary]; } /*!
