Yes,
loadViewis responsible for loading nib files automatically from known bundles based on the class name of the view controller. If you overrideloadViewand don’t call[super loadView], no nibs will be loaded. The UIViewController class will callloadViewwhen itsviewproperty is called and is nil.Also note that overriding
loadViewand calling super is most likely not what you want.loadViewis for setting theself.viewproperty, that’s it. Everything else should happen inviewDidLoadetc.
