[MonoTouch] Now that I can post : Extending the UINavigationController??

[jhan...@gmail.com]

Howdy all,
   Is there a known reason why inheriting UINavigationController would not work 
the same as directly using the UINavigationController?

this very simple class below (with the constructors just passing to the base 
and doing nothing else) loads a blank (black) screen.. where as directly 
creating a UINavigationController works just fine..

public class MyNavViewControllerBase: UINavigationController
    {
        public MyNavViewControllerBase (UIViewController 
viewController):base(viewController)
        {
            //setBackground(this);
        }

        public MyNavViewControllerBase (NSCoder coder):base(coder)
        {
            //setBackground (this);
        }

        public MyNavViewControllerBase ():base()
        {
            //setBackground (this);
        }

        public MyNavViewControllerBase (IntPtr ptr):base(ptr)
        {
            //setBackground (this);
        }

        public MyNavViewControllerBase (NSObjectFlag flag):base(flag)
        {
            //setBackground (this);
        }

        public MyNavViewControllerBase (string nibName, NSBundle 
bundle):base(nibName,bundle)
        {
            //setBackground (this);
        }
}

We are initializing our UINavigationController in code in our AppDelegate so 
there isn't an issue with the NIB here. Ergo

UINavigationController myNavController = new 
UINavigationController(myfirstViewController);

works fine but

MyNavViewControllerBase myNavController = new 
MyNavViewControllerBase(myfirstViewController);

just shows a black screen.


Thanks
Josh
