I'm doing this instead:

[self.updateButton setTitle:dateDisplay forState:UIControlStateNormal];

and it works. But I'd still like to know why the other code didn't.

I'm having a ridiculous amount of trouble changing the text of a UIButton title. I have the button connected to the file's owner (a UIViewController) in IB, and I've defined this property:

    @property(nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet UIButton *button;

The button's action method works, so I know the connections are OK. I put this in the controller's viewWillAppear: method:

    self.button.titleLabel.text = @"Why won't this work?";

and the button remains blank. (No text is set for the button in IB.) I've put an NSLog in the viewWillAppear: method, so I know it's being called.

Why won't this work?
