Question

Have tried to compile and run this program, but have received this error message in the console:

2012-02-23 11:43:53.949 touches_v3[8667:f803] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSUnknownKeyException', reason: '[<ViewController 0x6aab1e0> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key buttonShrink.'
*** First throw call stack:

terminate called throwing an exception(lldb) 

This doesn’t make sense to me because while I did code “buttonShrink” as an object in the header file, I later deleted it, and deleted all references to it in the implementation file. There are no errors or warnings in either the header or implementation files.

Here is the code for those two.
Header file:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface ViewController : UIViewController {

    IBOutlet UIImageView *myIcon;
    IBOutlet UIImageView *myBackground;
    IBOutlet UIButton *shrinkButton;

    NSArray *bgImages;
    int currentBackground;
    bool hasMoved;
    bool hasShrunk;

    CGAffineTransform translate;
    CGAffineTransform size;
    UIButton *move;

}

@property (nonatomic, retain)UIImageView *myIcon; 
@property (nonatomic, retain)UIImageView *myBackground;
@property (nonatomic, retain)NSArray *bgImages;
@property (nonatomic, retain)UIButton *shrinkButton;


- (IBAction)shrink:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)move:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)change:(id)sender;

@end

Implementation file:

#import "ViewController.h"

@interface ViewController ()


@end

@implementation ViewController
@synthesize myIcon, myBackground, bgImages, shrinkButton;

{
    [super viewDidLoad];

You have a button in InterfaceBuider that is linked to an action called “buttonShrink”. Looks like you probably renamed the method in your class, but did not update the association in InterfaceBuilder.
