iphone - Subclassed UIView doesn't get tag set -

i have subclassed uiview class , create multiple instances of class in loop (incrementing each time), when try set tag of view, , log console after created, have tag of 1, regardless of set tag as.

any appreciated, thanks!

my code creating subview here:

//for() loop above counter flashcardview *subview = [[flashcardview alloc] initwithframe:frame]; subview.delegate = self; subview.viewnum=i+10; //my attempt @ workaround cannot view later not helpful [subview settag:i+10]; //tried , subview.tag=i+10; nslog(@"%d", subview.tag); //prints correctly //gets added parent later 

this nslog logs correct tag, when log tag in uiview subclass, returns tag 1. also, if print subviews of parent in later called method (in viewcontroller), of them have tag 1.

i cannot tell why, can tell how find problem. in flashcardview subclass, add method:

- (void)settag:(nsinteger)thetag {   assert(thetag != 1);   [super settag:thetag]; } 

then, when whatever setting tag 1 it, assert fire , can @ stack trace , see coming from.

alternately, remove assert, , put breakpoint on super message.

ps: make sure enable exceptions!
