I need to understand when UIView appears on the screen, so I need an analogue of the viewDidAppear method.
I found a UIView lifecycle:
I tried all of these methods, but I didn't get an answer.
No there is no viewDidAppear in UIView. you may override func drawRect to do any UI changes that you need on UIView inherited View.
SideNote - In case you want get drawrect to update at later times, Call setNeedsDisplay. setNeedsDisplaywill not immediately call drawRect but marks the receiver’s entire bounds rectangle as needing to be redrawn.
In other words - You should never call drawRect yourself. Instead, you tell the system that drawing needs to be done by using the setNeedsDisplay method, which marks the view as dirty. And the drawRect method of the subclass would then be called during the next update cycle.
As per the queries from OP(@Alexander), he just need to set some variable so it advisable to use any of the following override functions, depending on action need to be performed
-(void)didMoveToSuperview - sent immediately after the view is
inserted into a view hierarchy.
-(void)didMoveToWindow - sent immediately after the view gets its
window property set.
-(void)willMoveToSuperview:(UIView *)newSuperview - sent
immediately before the view is added as a subview to another view;
newSuperview may be nil when you remove the view from its
superview.
-(void)willMoveToWindow:(UIWindow *)newWindow - sent immediately
before the view (or its superview) is added to a window; newWindow
may be nil when you remove the view from a window.
Look, viewDidAppear is method of UIViewController which represents moment when view of ViewController did appear and allows you to do declare what should happen.
UIView has no method like this. This comes from MVC pattern: controller is in this case UIViewController which controls changes, actions, etc., and view is just what controller shows.
