Xcode/iPhone: First Windows-Based Application - Why isn't anything showing up in the TabBarController views

Is there something that I need to remember when using the windows-based template? Because I'm unclear as to why the tabs are showing up but nothing in the views are showing up.

Could you help? Because I've been searching through previous questions for a few hours now and I still haven't found anything to clear this up.

Dissecting your viewDidLoad –

scroller = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.view.frame.size.width,self.view.frame.size.height)];

You seem to be creating a new scroll view instance here but you have declared it as an outlet. If you don't have an outlet then remove the IBOutlet tag for scroller. If you do have one and want to use it then remove the above line. A shorter way of doing it would be,

scroller = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];

Another thing is that you are creating 10 labels but assigning no frame. To show one of them each in different page,

int pageNumber = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
    UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] init];
    [label sizeToFit];
    label.center = CGPointMake (((2 * i + 1) * self.view.frame.size.width) / 2, self.view.frame.size.height / 2);
    label.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", pageNumber];

    [scroller addSubview:label];
    [label release];

    pageNumber++;
}

and later set the contentSize to show 10 pages,

scroller.contentSize = CGSizeMake(10 * self.view.frame.size.width, self.view.frame.size.height);

The problem is with this line

AnotherMadeUpViewController *vc3 = [[AnotherMadeUpViewController alloc] init];

You need to change it to

AnotherMadeUpViewController *vc3 = [[AnotherMadeUpViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"AnotherMadeUpViewController" bundle:nil];

Then your .xib will get loaded and your outlets will be connected.

And don't forget to connect your outlets to File's owner in IB.
