Given the recent/ongoing discussion about bypassing Interface Builder I have one question/issue for which IB does not seem to provide any solution. Interface Builder and NIBs are nice and have many advantages but I am missing a way to build different versions of nib files depending on Project targets/settings. I'm wondering how others handle this?


I generally split up the NIB into several NIBs. That way, I can load the master NIB containing the window, and then load the sub-NIBs using NSViewController depending on which version of the app is built.

I also have some view classes not unlike Javas GridBag and similar that arrange their subviews and, when used as a window's content view, can resize the window to fit their contents. Comes in very handy for all sorts of dynamic view arrangements, including using bindings to show/hide non-applicable parts and having the window magically re- layout in response to that. Though in that case I often just embed the views in an NSView that have to be shown/hidden together, without loading them from separate NIBs.
