UIStoryboard学习

• A UIStoryboard object encapsulates the view controller graph stored in an Interface Builder storyboard resource file. This view controller graph represents the view controllers for all or part of your application’s user interface. Normally, view controllers in a storyboard are instantiated and created automatically in response to actions defined within the storyboard itself. However, you can use a storyboard object to instantiate the initial view controller in a storyboard file or instantiate other view controllers that you want to present programmatically.

   

  简明：

  一个 UIStoryboard对象囊括了，保存在IB分镜资源文件（xxx.storyboard）中的视图控制器图表。这个视图控制器图表代表你应用程序界面中所有或部分视图控制器（也可手动创建视图控制器）。

   

  方法：

  1. + (UIStoryboard *)storyboardWithName:(NSString *)name  bundle:(NSBundle *)storyboardBundleOrNil

  Creates and returns a storyboard object for the specified storyboard resource file.

  通过指定的storyboard resource创建并返回一个storyboard对象。

  
  Parameters

  name	The name of the storyboard resource file without the filename extension. This method raises an exception if this parameter is nil.
  storyboardBundleOrNil	The bundle containing the storyboard file and its related resources. If you specify nil, this method looks in the main bundle of the current application.

   

  2. - (id)instantiateInitialViewController

  Instantiates and returns the initial view controller in the view controller graph.

  在视图控制器图表中（storyboard对象），实例化并返回标记为initial的视图控制器。

   

   

  3. - (id)instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:(NSString *)identifier

  Instantiates and returns the view controller with the specified identifier.

  实例化并返回特定ID的视图控制器。

   

  此处的identifier指的是视图控制器ID监视器中的stroryboard ID，若方法中该值为nil或实际上找不到，程序会报出异常。
