Question

As the title says, I’m trying to create a UIImage that will go inside a UIImageView (so that I can animate it later) then I want to put that UIImageView into another classes UIView.

So far my relevant code is:

This is the viewDidLoad for my root view controller:

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.
    self.playerViewController = [[TUKIPlayerViewController alloc] init];
    [self.view addSubview:playerViewController.view];
}

And this is the init for the UIImageView:

- (id)init
{
    if (self = [super init]) {
        playerIdle = [UIImage imageNamed:@"playerIdle.png"];
        playerView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:playerIdle];
        self.view = playerView;
    }
    return self;
}

It builds and runs with 0 errors.

What am I doing wrong? I don’t see the playerIdle.png anywhere. Though I’m betting I’m doing this terribly wrong.

In your ViewController , add the imageview directly…

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
   playerView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"playerIdle.png"]];
   [self.view addSubView: playerView];
}
