Custom NSView with NSStackView

Question

I am trying to implement NSStackView with always the same custom view. So I have define my xib file, linked everything inside my class, associated the class, ... but I am sure I am missing something because the content inside the view don't appear. Thx very much for your help.

My storyboard:

My xib file:

The result when I run the below code:

My file is like :

class CustomView: NSView, NSTableViewDelegate, NSTableViewDataSource {
    @IBOutlet weak var segmentControlOutlet: NSSegmentedControl!
    @IBOutlet weak var tableViewOutlet: NSTableView!
}

class ViewController: NSViewController, NSStackViewDelegate {
    
    @IBOutlet weak var stackViewOutlet: NSStackView!
    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        
        stackViewOutlet.delegate = self
        
        let newView = CustomView()
        stackViewOutlet.addArrangedSubview(newView)
        
    }

    override var representedObject: Any? {
        didSet {
        // Update the view, if already loaded.
        }
    }


}

I have found the answer, you need to initiate properly the view. To do so :

class CustomView: NSView, NSTableViewDelegate, NSTableViewDataSource {

    @IBOutlet var viewOutlet: NSView!
    @IBOutlet weak var segmentControlOutlet: NSSegmentedControl!
    @IBOutlet weak var tableViewOutlet: NSTableView!

    override init(frame frameRect: NSRect) {
        super.init(frame: frameRect)
        Bundle.main.loadNibNamed("CustomView", owner: self, topLevelObjects: nil)
        addSubview(viewOutlet)
        viewOutlet.frame = self.bounds
        viewOutlet.autoresizingMask = [.height, .width]
    }

    required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: coder)
        Bundle.main.loadNibNamed("CustomView", owner: self, topLevelObjects: nil)
        addSubview(viewOutlet)
        viewOutlet.frame = self.bounds
        viewOutlet.autoresizingMask = [.height, .width]
    }

    override func draw(_ dirtyRect: NSRect) {
        super.draw(dirtyRect)

        // Drawing code here.
    }
}

Please take car that when you load the nib name, "CustomView" is the name of your xib file ;)
