subView in DetailViewController? - iphone

Question

I have a main table view and a detail view. when i click cell detail view should show the details of that item. now what i wanna do is to create subview and put that subview in detailView instead of creating a detailview for every cell. it ll solve my some other problems. Code looks like this:
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
DetailViewController *nextController = [[DetailViewController alloc] init];
int storyIndex = [indexPath indexAtPosition:[indexPath length] -1];
[nextController initWithObjectAtIndex:storyIndex inArray:stories];
NSString *storyTitle = [[stories objectAtIndex:storyIndex] objectForKey:#"title"];
nextController.title = #"Details";
UIBarButtonItem *tempButtonItem = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] init] autorelease];
tempButtonItem.title = #"Tillbaka";
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = tempButtonItem ;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:nextController animated:YES];
[nextController release];
}
now how can i create a subview with a label and change text of that label to storyTitle.
thanx in advance.

Given a parent view, you don't need to create a new subview just to add a label to the parent. But, assuming you really do want to add a subview with a label to your parent view, then do this:
...
UIView *parentView;
...
UIView *subView = [[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:mySubViewFrame] autorelease];
UILabel *lbl = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:myLabelFrame] autorelease];
lbl.text = storyTitle;
[subView addSubview: lbl];
[parentView addSubview: subView];
