Is there any way to identify whether a UIView
is loaded from a nib file/Storyboard, or instantiated dynamically from user code? I am creating a custom UIView
subclass so I have full access to instance methods.
Would checking whether initWithCoder:
is called a good idea, or are there other ways too?
For anyone who wonders why I need such functionality: I am developing a library where I want to smart-resize some views according to their content only if they are programmatically created (user won't bother with initialization code, adding layout constraints etc and I will have a simple class method initializer). If user has designed it in Interface Builder, they obviously want to see it as they designed it (I am using IBDesignable/IBInspectable attributes too so IB will heavily be used), so I won't be touching their design.
